Achievement 2 @ofalamin Task : Basic Security on Steemit

in Newcomers' Community3 years ago (edited)

Having a profile on a huge website like Steemit, there is an important need for you to secure that account and keep safe all the necessary passcodes just so you don't misplace them or get hacked carelessly.
Below, I will write on some questions relating to steemit and all its security measures.

Have you retrieve all your keys on steemit?

I have retrieved all my keys on steemit by downloading them in a pdf format onto my laptop and making sure it is well saved.

Do you know each of these key functions and restrictions?

-Posting Key: This key should be used for social networking actions, like posting, commenting, and voting. This key has a limited set of permissions and it is not able to be used for monetary actions. So you can't lose money if someone else gets access to this key.
-Active Key: This key has additional permissions for more sensitive monetary-related actions, like transferring and exchanging tokens.
When performing a wallet-related action, you may be prompted to authenticate with your Active key. You should only enter your Active Key into apps which you trust because anyone with access to this key can take your tokens.
-Owner Key: The owner key is required to change the other keys. This key has additional permissions to recover your account or change your other keys. It's the most important key and should be securely stored offline.
-Memo Key: The Memo key because it is a bit of an outlier. The only thing the Memo Key can do is encrypt and decrypt private messages that are sent through the blockchain. While this could one day be a powerful feature, today it is not commonly used.
-Master Password:It is the primary key to the account. Whoever obtains the password can log into the account and work with it as he wants. Therefore, maintaining it is very important to protect your account.
The aforementioned are various types of keys and their respective function.

How do you plan to keep your master password?
I have made duplicate copies of these keys then stored them in the cloud on different servers, also I printed out a hard copy that I keep with me in a secure place out of reach.
