Review of Security on Steemit Platform

---

One would ask what is security?In my opinion, security is the fundamental rule one should obey in order to get protected from thieves, loss of property, saving ones life or accident. It can also be seen as a state of feeling secure that is freedom from anxiety, doubt, fear, danger, e.t.c. So, transferring this knowledge in Steem is similar to protect one’s account from losses, hackers, compromising one’s account that can lead to discontinuity. It will secure your steemit account and also make you feel relax when operating your steemit account.

Having known this, it's very very critical and also compulsory to save the number of keys that one generated from steem as this is the most critical aspect for one to be secured in steem blockchain.
In belief of these, I have redeem all my Steemit passwords and saved them on my computer (laptop) and also on my Email. I also saved copies on my external hard drive and my mobile phone with password attached to it.
In a tabular form these keys are listed and their purpose shown as well below.

Keys	Permissions
Posting Key	Publish a post or comment Edit a post or comment Upvote or Downvote Resteem content Follow people Mute account
Active Key	Transfer Token Power Steem up or Down SDB conversion Vote for witness Place an order on an exchange certain profile changes publish a witness Price feed create a new user
Owner Key	Reset owner, active and posting keys Recover your account Decline voting rights
Memo Key	Send an encrypted message view an encrypted message

Why should I be careful with my master password?
The master password is used to derive all keys for your account, including the owner key. It is also the most essential key in steemit keys.

I have read and understood the performance and hurdle of these keys. I observe the blog post on Keys in a functional place so I can be able to make reference to the notes repeatedly.

Question 4

Ans: yes, I do after clicking on the steem in my wallet you will see transfer, then follow the instructions that follows.
Question 5
Do you know how to power up your STEEM?
Ans: yes, I know how to power up. When I go to my wallet I tap on my steem, an icon will appear and then I tap on the power up button and it does so spontaneously.
Below is the practical way
