Achievement 2 @iam1entity Task: Basic Security on Steem

Steemit actually made a very smart move by incorporating the different keys and the more I studied them, the more I learnt to appreciate their works and dedication into making the platform more secure for it users.

And the below questions made everything very assuring and engaging.

Question 1
“Have you retrieved all your keys?”
Yes i have, my first step was to login to my wallet with my master key and click on “Keys and Permissions” and i retrieved them as shown on the image bellow.

Question 2
“Do you know each of these key functions and restrictions?”
Yes I do and they are as follows

A. Posting key:

1. Used for logging into social networks like steemit and esteem.
2. Used for performing social actions like posting and commenting.

B. Active key:

1. Used for money transfers and other money related actions.

C. Owner key:

1. Used to recover stolen accounts
2. Used to recover other keys

Nb: 1. I personally call it, “The Factory Key” because It is used to recover stolen accounts and has a reset function to other keys.

1. It is the most important key.

D. Memo key:

1. Used to decrypt private messages.

E. Public keys:

1. Used to only look up transactions and are not required for logins.
