ACHIEVEMENT-2:STEEMIT SECURITY@emmanu
Hello my fellow steemians you are all welcome to my blog and I am writing about security in steemit. A steemit account generates revenue and for that reason it needs to be strongly protected
I am grateful to steemit and to the newcomers Community for giving me the privilege to speak on STEEM SECURITY.
Have you retrieved all you keys on Steemit ?
Yes It was sent to me as a PDF file.
DIFFERENT KEYS AND THERE FUNCTIONS
The steemit keys are
° posting key
° memo key
° active key
° owner Key
° public keys
POSTING KEY
The posting key is the most used among all the available keys in steemit, this key grants access to functionalities like:
Publishing of steemit post or comment
Muting of accounts
Resteeming of steemit content (blog)
Edit post or comments etc
MEMO KEY
This key was designed to encrypt a message an to view an encypted message about transaction which are meant to be private
ACTIVE KEY
The active Key is the most powerful key because it can authorize the transfer and powering up of your Steem. It is requested when high level activities are to be carried out. This includes:
Activating a steemit wallet
Making a transfer of Steem
Making a Power Up or Down
Making a Voting for witness
Delegating Steem Power
•Making certain profile exchange
•SBD conversation
OWNER KEY
Owner key is a not mostly used key,it is just designed to perform the following actions
Reset Owner, Active, and Posting keys
Recover your account
PUBLIC KEYS
Public keys are associated with username and can be used to look up associated transactions on the blockchain. Public keys are not required for your login on steemit so they don't need stored safely
MY PLAN TO KEEP KEYS SAFE
I started by saving them in an offline pages like email and later printed and laminated them
HOW TO POWER UP
Powering up saves your Steem and gives you power in the steemit platform. To power up:
Select wallet from the profile window
Go to the STEEM section and tap the arrow close to STEEM
Select the power up option in the list
Enter the amount to be powered up and tap power up
Tap the OK button
Sign in with your active key and your STEEM powers up automatically
