Hello everyone,I am @cheerille. Since am done with my Achievement 1 am here to take my Achievement 2 that has to do with basic security and how to keep my private keys safe.
This is my keys above, lt has different function, same with keys in steemit platform, lt has different function..

So am taking the following questions:

Question 1

Have u retrieve all your keys in steemit?
Yes. I have retrieve all my keys and I have safe them in my documents file, I even safe them on my goggle drive in case I lost my phone, though I did not pray to lost my phone.

Question 2

Do you know each of these key function and restrictions?
Yes. I no all the key function and their restrictions
There are 5 private basic keys, which is:

private posting key
Private memo key
Private active key
Private owner key
Private master key

Functions of the keys are::::

*private posting key is use to publish a post or comment
Edit a post or comment
Upvote or downvote
Resteem content
Follow people or mute account

*Memo key is used to encrypt and discrypt a private message that are send through the block chain, so if I received a private message that I will like to decrypt I used my memo key. Though not so commonly used today. All memo permission demand to use a memo key for viewing or sending encrypt massage

*Private active key is used to transfer token Power Steem up and down, active key is also used for SBD conversion, voting for witness, and for placing an order in an exchange, it is also used for creating a new user, publishing a witness price feed

*Private owner key is used either to change others key or recovery one account, it is used to recover an account and declined voting right, it is the most important of all the keys so it deserves to be carefully secured

*Private master key it is the master of all keys which is used to retrieve all other keys when lost, due to functionality and importance of the master key, it is necessary to served the master password beyond the hackers reach

Question 3

How do you plan to keep your master password?

Since I no the function of the password , I saved my password in my document file and Goggle drive.

Question 4

Do you know how to transfer your Steem token to another Steem account?
