Achievement 2 @beckie96830 Task : Basic Security on Steem

This post is made to fulfill the required task given by @cryptokannon and other steem greeters @kiwiscanfly, @yohan2on, @cmp2020 just to mention a few.

Writing this post automatically translates to the fact that I've understood the basic security measures on steem and how to protect my keys from third parties.

The basic security on steem primarily has to do with the safe guard of the computer generated keys given to users upon creating their account.

Those basic security keys includes:

• Private posting keys: Posting keys are used for;
  Publishing a post or comment,
  Editing a post or comment,
  Upvoting or downvoting,
  Resteeming contents,
  Following and unfollowing people or accounts,
  Mute accounts.

• Private active keys: Active keys are used for;
  Transfering tokens or funds,
  Powering up or down steems,
  Steem BD conversions,
  Voting for witnesses,
  Placing an order on an exchange,
  Certain profile changes,
  Publishing a witness price feed,
  Creating a new user into the blockchain.

• Private memo keys: Memo keys are used for;
  Sending an encrypted message
  Viewing an encrypted message

• Private owner keys: Owner keys are used for;
  Resetting all other keys such as Owner, Active, and Posting keys,
  Recovering accounts,
  Declining vote rights.

Compulsory questions to answer

Questions	Answers
Have you retrieve all your keys on steemit?	After successfully creating my account. There's a link that required me to download PDF file containing my keys. So the answer is yes I've retrieved all my keys on steemit.
Do you know each of these key functions and restrictions?	Yes. Already made a blog above.
How do you plan to keep your master password?	By saving it offline in a hardcopy particularly my diary. Keeping it in the custody of my last born. She's good at keeping such confidential credentials.
Do you know how to transfer your steem token to another steem user account?	Yes, by clicking on transfer button, insert the receiver's username, put in my private active keys and send.
Do you know how to power up your STEEM?	Yes. By clicking on power up. Immediately it's converted to steem power.

Thank you for reading my post and for new users, take precautions in the safety of your keys to avoid your funds being stolen or account hacked.
