This is my post achievement# 2 on Steemit. This is an introduction to the security of Steemit and its importance. To secure this security, Steemit gives us some keys that we have a responsibility to save and keep in a safe place.

Nowadays we have online and offline facilities with which we can save this data. These keys give us the advantage so that we can make different changes to the Steemit using different keys in different places and different places can prevent another person from accessing our privacy and thus our data would not be stolen. And no one can access our privacy.

Basic Security on Steemit:
Just as we sign up to Steemit account from a mobile or laptop, Steemit provides us with different keys. When we enter those keys and passwords, we gain access to Steemit.

It is very important to keep these keys and various passwords secure so that no one can hack or log in to our account illegally.

Here we are provided with different keys:

1: Master password

2: Private Active key

3: Private Owner key

4: Private Posting key

5: Tron Private key

6: Memo key

The roles and functions of all these keys:

1:Master Password:
Steemit's most powerful key is the Master password. Because all other keys can be changed with this master password and Steemit does not allow this master key to be shared with anyone.

2: Private Posting key:
Private Posting Keys on Steemit advantage is to use these keys we can vote, post, and comment on any social action.

3: Private Active key:
This key is used to transact and transfer funds on the Steemit. And it can convert SBD to Steem or Steem to SBD.

4: Private Owner Key:
The rest of the keys can be re-arranged with this key and it must be saved as it can also recover the account for a few days.

5: Tron Private key:
It can be used to transact on a Steem account through keys. In addition to blocking, transfer tokens, and you can use it to freeze and vote.

6: Memo key:
This will allow you to deposit money into your account. And it must be protected. Don't share this key with anyone

Respected @yousafharoonkhan, Yes it is connected to Google account and gmail account has strong security system and it is 2-factor authentication by which someone receive message or notification on mobile/laptop when something happen.It is safe because if someone have any illegal source he stills need approval for login so it shows trust and strong security.
