Achievement 2 post how well do i understand my security keys and their usage.
We all know Security is very important in every aspect of our lives especially in social media, so having completed my achievement 1 post on steemit, this achievement 2 post is created to explain my understanding of the various security keys and their functions.
How do i keep my account save:
The best and advisable way to keep my account save is storing my keys in a secured place mostly offlines, by keeping the keys in a secure place and avoiding exposing my keys and also make sure to avoid using the keys on site that are not secured and giving out my keys to other people.

Question 1
Have i retrieved all my keys on steemit:
Yes i have retrieved all my keys and they are well kept on a safe place, i have saved it on my email and my personal diary where I can easily refer to it in the future.

Question 2
Do you know each of the keys functions and restrictions:
Yes, although I made a mistake at first but thanks to the criticism and advise I was able to understand the keys and their function better.
POSTING KEY - Posting key is used to do some social media action like posting , voting and commenting. It is the lowest tier key but It is most useful key for all of us, cos we use it for our everyday activities.
It is (Posting key) is also used for voting post. The green arrow is used for upvoting, while the Red arrow is used for down voting.
ACTIVE KEY - Active key is one of the most useful key in Steemit. It is used for transferring , converting sbd into steem , powering up and down. It is used for buying and selling steems. Before you can make any transaction you will need the Active key.
OWNER KEY - It is also an important key in this Steemit World. It is the highest of the keys. It can perform all actions as of the other keys. It's also used for Changing other keys. Before you can change the other keys, you will need your owners key, it's like the master key.
MEMO KEY - Memo key is usually for sending messages to other users of Steemit by using a hashtag in our message. It also shows when we are making a transfer, incase you have a message to pass across with the transfer you use the memo key. I have used my memo key when I sent a message during a transaction.
TRON KEY - this key is basically for the use of our tron account it can be use for transfer of tron in our account.
MASTER KEY - it is the key to all other keys, because it can easily be use to reset all other keys.
Question 3
How do u plan to keep your master password: i already saved it on my email and and phone not and I already written it in a hard paper for it's safety.

Question 4
Do you know how to transfer your steem token to another steem user.
