1. A computer-implemented method performed by an authentication system and comprising:
associating authentication enrollment information of a user with a first client device, wherein the authentication enrollment information is associated with a first authentication credential for authenticating access requests through the authentication system;
receiving, from the first client device, a request to enroll a second client device associated with the user, wherein authorization of the request is based at least in part on the first authentication credential, and wherein the request includes information corresponding to a second authentication credential provided by the second client device to the first client device;
associating updated authentication enrollment information with the second client device based at least in part on authorization of the request, wherein the updated authentication enrollment information is associated with at least the second authentication credential; and
providing, to the first client device, confirmation of enrollment of the second client device.
