Achievement2 :Basic security on steemit by @rodas

source

After receiving the pleasant news of @dilchamo having been verified the achieve 1, I set out to perform the second task that has to do with basic security and protect our account through the custody of the security keys.
I have observed the insistence of steemit to take care of the keys, and it is really delicate not to take care of the keys, coincidentally a few days ago there was a hacker cyber attack on the network and several users were harmed.

What if you fell for the deception of giving your keys?

• They send messages from your account inviting thousands of users to enter a big contest, which of course does not exist, it is just a strategy to steal your password.

• You put ALL users of the platform at risk.

• They can steal your money, depending on the key you have supplied.

• You can lose your account and with it all the work done.

Well already touched this very important point of security, let's talk about the importance of knowing what each of the keys is for

Have you obtained and saved all your Steemit passwords? If I get to my email a pdf file and save it in several strategic places to protect your safety.

Do you know all the functions and restrictions of the keys? Here's how to explain:

Private
Private Owner Key
Activation Key
Memo Key

Private
publishing key I use it to log in, to publish, comment and vote, in terms of restrictions it does not allow the modification of the other permission keys and does not allow the user to move the money from the account or to make any purchase sale in the internal market of Steemit.

Private Owner Key
This key is used to restore the other keys if necessary. This key is of high importance.

Activation Key (Active Key): It is used to transfer power up and turn on steems, convert steem dollars, apart from updating profile allows you to change the other permission keys, transfer funds and other operations that the owner key supports. What cannot be done with this key is to change the owner's key.

Memo Key: used to hide and/or show memo when transferring funds, numeral (#) must be used before placing it.

How do you plan to keep your master key safe?

I will use it only when the type of activity to be carried out requires it, avoid the exposure of these keys and use only my publication key.

Do you know how to transfer your Steem tokens to other users?

Step 1
we need to log into my account with my username and post key.

Step 2
I enter my wallet or wallet

Step 3

Click where it says STEEM and a list of options will be displayed and select where it says Transfer

Step 4

Place the name of the user to whom we are going to transfer.
Then we place the amount we want to transfer.

We confirm that all information is correct and confirm the transfer

Do you know how to perform the power up process in Steem?

Being in my wallet I press where it says STEEM and a list of options is displayed and we select where it says (power up)

A window will open, there we place the amount of Steem Power that we want to turn on.

We check the amount and click the power Up button.
