According to Benjamin Franklin "distrust and caution are the parents of security" and further according to George W. Bush " security is the essential road block to achieving the road map to peace". Finally according to Stephane Nappo "cyber-security is much more than a matter of IT". Therefore, every security adaptable caution needs to be strictly adhered to,as to avoid falling pray to certain delinquencies, carefreeness and insouciant behavior by any body.

It gives a whole lot of concern for instance to steemit blog , in hearing of some of it's members having issues of; probably misplaced or stollen password. Hence this has given rise to steemit blog in escavating and insisting that every member should maintain a system generated password, to members, which are actually not easy to cram by any one, as to avert tampering of members account. Also every member is advised to keep prudently all of his account password and possibly having them in hard copies, to avoid misplacement, may be through phone loss or some other means as any misplaced password may be unretrievable, more especially the owner or master key.

Not withstanding let's have a digest look at the keys and their various functions.
