Hello guys welcome to my achievement2 post , thank you again for verifying my achievement1 it made me really happy and more excited .the purpose of my achievement2 is to give me a sound understanding about the steemit security system and better my experience .

               SECURITY

Security is basically the state of being free from danger or threat be it physically , emotionally or digitally .
SECURITY KEY 🔑 .
A security key is a device that facilitates access or stronger authentication into other devices, online systems and applications . (web definition )
STEEM SECURITY SYSTEM
Steem operates a hierarchical key system .

The master key is at the top of the chainbecause it oversees every other key . the master key or the owner key can be used when changing your password but however steemit lays emphasis on saving the different passwords assigned to you because being careless with your password can cause you your steemit account
some of the rules to know about your steemit passworld :
Rule 1: Do not lose your password
Rule 2: again do not lose your password
Rule 3: We can not recover your password
Rule 4: If you cannot remember your password then it is not secure
Rule 5: Use only randomly generated password
Rule 6: Do not tell anyone your password
Rule 7: Always backup your password .
Having a knowledge of these rules will however keep you or make you security conscious . losing your password is therefore not an option .

       Steem security keys 🔑 

POSTING KEY .
The posting key allows accounts to perform social activities like to post, comment, edit, vote,resteem and follow or mute other accounts. Although being at the bottom of the chain the posting key is very functional to steem but can ne easily abused or over used .

ACTIVE KEY
The active key is ment for transactions that are sensitive such as transferring funds , power up/ down transactions , voting for witnesses , updating profile details and avatar , and placing market order .

OWNER KEY
The owner key is the most powerful key on steemit , it is so because the owner key can change any key on the account including the owner key itself .

MEMO KEY
