SECURITY

Source

Security is simply the state of being free from threat or danger. We have to take safety measures so we don't loose something precious to us or even our lives.

SECURITY IN STEEMIT

Steemit as a body took measures to protect the account of it's users, so they developed 5 keys known as permission keys.
These keys are

• Memo key
• Posting key
• Active key
• Master key
• Owner key

MEMO KEY: this key is used to encrypt and decrypt Information, encryption means transferring information into secret code while decryption means decoding secret codes.

POSTING KEY: this key is used for posting, it enables you write to the view of others, it is used for downvoting and upvoting.

ACTIVE KEY: this key is used during transactions, when transferring from your wallet to another wallet or when powering up, you make use of this key.

MASTER KEY: this key surpasses all other keys in steemit, a master is one that is supreme to others, so this key is the first key you come across when signing up.

OWNER KEY: the term ownership means possessing something or asset legally, so this key makes you have full access to your account.

SECURING KEYS

When opening a steemit account, the first key you come across is your master key, after that You are going to see a PDF containing all your keys, download it and it will be in your PDF, now the best you can secure them better is by saving it in your email, so incase you lost your device, you can still get your keys in your email.
