Hello my steemit friends,
It is very important for every user of the Steem blockchain platform to understand the basic security on Steem. It is very important to learn all the information about your security keys and wallets and most importantly apply what you already know.
There are a few important things you should remember about security keys:
Save your master password and keep it somewhere safe as only your password can retrieve your data so keep it in a safe place.
Store your keys in two to three places. Just don't miss it.
Steemit cannot help you recover your password. If it is lost once, you will lose your account. So just don't miss it.
Read all the above points again!!!
Let us tell you more about all the keys.
Private Posting Key:
Used to log into apps like Steemit.com and perform functions of commenting, upvoting, downvoting, etc.
Private Memo Key:
Used to decrypt private transfer memos. It plays an important role in the privacy of you and the messages you send.
Private Active Key:
This is the key cost-effective to us and belongs to your wallet. Thus, it is a very important key to perform wallet related tasks. This helps to move tokens or move Steem up and down.
Private Owner Key:
This key is used to reset all other keys including yourself and is your savior when your account is compromised. It can be used to retrieve your tampered account within 30 days. It should always be stored offline and preferably in a hard copy or drive.
Private Master Key:
Termed as the "seed key", it is used to generate all other keys, including the private owner key. You must have both owner and master key to get your account back in case of third party attack on your account otherwise it will be gone.
The key should never be shared with anyone.
