Greetings great people of steemit, I'm grateful to participate on the second part of this achievement task, I'll be talking about the basic security on steem.

One of the most vital and crucial aspect of any online platform, environment, homes, business centers etc is SECURITY., without security your business is not safe and every responsible individual will want to secure his or her business in any platform.

Security needs to be taken really into consideration due to the tremendous hacking on the internet, to be security conscious is to be safe, Also I have learnt to adhere to security measures on steem for the safety of my account after going through the safety measures and functions from @cryptokannon. Below are my answers to the questions being asked

  1. HAVE YOU RETRIVE ALL YOUR KEYS ON STEEMIT?
