Achievement 2 @zmoreno Task: Basic Security on Steem
Hello, Hello! This time I will fulfill Achievement 2: Basic Security on Steem to differentiate the use of each of the Steemit keys and understand a little more about my steemit wallet. Without further ado, let's start answering the questions from our friend @cryptokannon!
Done by me in Canva.
Have you recovered all your keys in steemit?
Of course! All the passwords that Steemit generated for me were printed out and stored in a physical safe place. Similarly, the PDF format is also in private cloud storage on the internet, where it is kept secure so that no one but me decides what to do with them. They are also on my flash drive in case any of the above are damaged.

Do you know each of these key functions and restrictions?
Done by me in Canva.
Yes, all of their functions were explained to me immediately when I logged into Steemit, since it is essential for the security of our account to know how each of the keys and the procedures that are done within the steemit wallet work.
For example, the one I use the most is the posting key, because I find myself logging into Steemit frequently from my cell phone and computer. I need this password to post, comment, edit, resteem and vote; that is, everything that has to do with using Steemit as a social network. So, for me, it is the most common and easy to use password.
It is followed by the active key, which I use to make transfers, convert Steem dollars and power up transactions. This is used by me less frequently, but I understand that it is much more important and sensitive.
I have never used the memo key, but I know that its functions have to do with encrypting and decrypting the memos for transfers.
Finally, I have never needed to use the owner key, as I have not had any problems with my passwords so far.
How do you plan to keep your master password?
Done by me in Canva.
I printed out all the passwords, including the master password, to keep everything safe on physical.
Likewise, it is in the offline cloud where it is kept out of reach of anyone else.
It's also stored on my personal flash drive, cell phone and laptop, where it sits as a backup in case anything unfortunate happens.
Do you know how to transfer your steem token to another steem user account?
Of course!
After logging into the steemit wallet with the active key, it is as simple as clicking on the amount of Steems or Steems Dollars. Once done, a bar will open with options, among which is "transfer", which works to transfer tokens from one user to another.

When this option opens, we see the options to fill in.

We choose a user and the amount we want to transfer.

Finally, we fill in the "memo", which will be a note that will go along with the transfer to describe why it is being done.

That's it! Those are all the steps to follow to transfer from my token to another steemit account.
Do you know how to power up your STEEM?
Yes! It's as simple as logging back into my wallet using the active key, then clicking on the steems amount. Once there, a window pops up to choose how many steems you want to add to your Steem power. After setting the amount, select "power up" and that's it! It's done.
