I am going to express my knowledge about achievement2 task, in this article I will talk about the most important security keys and password.

Password stands for protecting the information from third parties whom may want to steal your private data.

Today I am getting the opportunity to explain every key, and I am very thankful to @cryptokannon she gave all the guidelines that every newcomers need.

HERE WE GO!

Question 1
Do you know each of these functions and restrictions?
Ans :Yes they are five keys. They are:

Private posting key, Private memo key, Private active key, Private owner key, Master password
The explanation follows.

1 Private posting key:

This key is used to login into the account, it is also used for posting, voting, updating and all social actions inside the profile.

This key is used for wallet-related actions, such as steem transferring, marketing up-down, all financial activity, converting steem action and so on.

4 Private owner key:

This key is useful to reset all other keys. In case your password has been hacked or forgot your password, we can all recover our account within 30 days at steemit website( www.steemit.com). we should keep this password from third party.
