Helo friends, welcome to my achievement 2 on steem, it's actually about basic security.

Firstly, meaning of security : security can be define as being careful, protect, keep safe or being conscious of a particular thing so that someone will not take over from you, or steal it frt the right owner, so, basic security refers to how you can protect your steemit account so that it's safe and difficult for someone to get access to ur account whether to steal or hacked your steem account. so, it's very necessary for each and every member (me including) of steem to be security-conscious on how they share information about their keys on their steemit account.

HAVE YOU RETRIEVED ALL YOUR KEYS ON STEEMIT?
To ensure that your steam account is safe, you cannot perform any action in your account without your keys. Now, the question is how do you get your keys? When you sign up, you are given your master password (a single complicated string of characters) the master password is then what you use to retrieve your keys which is: posting key
Active key
Owner key
And memo key
After retrieving my keys the master password was saved and kept somewhere it can be safe.
So, now, I can answer the question with amount of confidence that I have retrieved all my keys on steemit, because I was provided with my master password which I used and went to steemit.com wallet and retrieved all my keys.

DO YOU KNOW EACH OF THESE KEY FUNCTIONS AND RESTRICTIONS?
Each of these keys has its own function and usage which I have to explain. (1) master password: master password is the password you get upon signing up and it use to generate all other keys. After that , it's stored in a safer place and should only be use when your going through your account Discovery.
(2) posting key is use to post or comment, edit post or comment, upvote or downvote, resteem content, follow people, mute account. It's use to log into your steemit account more often.
(3) active key is use when transferring tokens and powering up or down, vote for witness price feed.
(4) anarchy is use to reset all keys which is posting key, active key even owner key itself, recovery of account, decline voting right, in conclusion I will say it the most powerful key.
Lastly, memo key: memo key is use to send an encrypted message.

HOW DO YOU PLAN TO KEEP YOUR MASTER PASSWORD?
It is very important to keep the master password safe because it is use to derive all keys for one's steem account. And if someone get a
In contact to your master password the person can decide to do with the account
either to hack your steemit account or steal and all of the tokens in it, because of these reasons I am looking forward to store my master password and keep it somewhere safe. I also plan to store it offline in a digital offline storage such as a flash drive as well as printed paper. And that's I have already done, thanks.

DO YOU KNOW HOW TO TRANSFER YOUR STEEM TOKEN TO ANOTHER STEAM USER ACCOUNT?
It's as simple as ABC, let me explain, I can easily move my steam talking to another steam user account through these samples 👉login to your steem account using your username and posting key by clicking on your image at the top by your right-hand side, click on wallet next to logout then sign in with your username and active key and click login. Upon that, click on the drop down arrow close to steem and select transfer 👇👇
