Achievement 2 By David-Emenike || Steem Security System
Hello everyone
Today I'll be discussing about the Steemit security system and how we can keep our Steemit account safe..
We also have different types of keys in the Steemit platform and I'll teach you more about the keys and how they can be used..
Types of Keys
Active key
This key is mostly used to confirm transaction or trades or change user settings.
Memo key
The memo Key is used for handling private messages and encrypted transaction.
Master password
The master key enables to retrieve all private keys of an account.
Posting key
This is the first and most used key type, it is used for posting, voting, and commenting.
Owner key
This key required to change all the other keys.This is the key that should be most carefully safeguarded against loss.
Ways we can protect our keys from being used.
Do not store your password online unencrypte
Encrypt your wallet and neverever forget your Password.
Remove all risky access from your system.
Keep your password hidden.
Just because the password is long it doesn’t mean you are safe.
If you believe somebody else is using your account, change your Password..
