in hive-172186 •  4 years ago 

Hello everyone, I trust we are all doing well. Today I am going to make everyone learn about the benefits of keys when it comes to steemit.
I am a new member of steemit, but I managed to still learn a few things about steemit security keys, and with much joy I would be sharing such an important knowledge with everyone.
My name is Mubarak Abdul Mumeen. I came to steemit to share the knowledge I have acquired through writings, learn, and also make friends.
Before I start to talk about keys I want to give a scenario so we get a picture of what I am about to say. Suppose you are a security manager of a bank which gives the best security in Ghana would you decide to use only one key for all the lockers with different pattern? Or each locker would have its own keys? That is what steemit keys is all about.
The different security keys when it comes to steemit are; posting keys, Owner keys, Active keys and Memo keys.
Now let us take note of one additional thing. Here you have to have duplicates of all the keys to your accounts and do not share with anyone. The reason is that, if anyone get access to it, he or she would get the other keys .Steemit also has a security key called the main password or master keys. With such an important key a lot can be done. This master security key is the most important key compared to the other keys. I trust by now you have acquired a clear picture of what steemit keys is all about.

MASTER KEY:
You can do so much activity with the master key. The master key is very important to the extent that with it, you can acquire all the other keys. The master key is therefore very important and it should be saved using WPS with an encryption code on the document so that no one can access it apart from you, since you would never be able to recover lost key so it is a very important key.

POSTING KEY:
The posting keys is used to post articles, comment on post, cancel a vote, or re-blog. Posting keys is one of the most important keys, because in case someone get this security key, he or she would be able to post articles, comment or even vote articles in your name which could destroy your reputation if such articles are inappropriate.

ACTIVE KEYS:
The active key is also an important key. This is because with this your wallet can be accessed. In addition there are a lot of apps that can be accessed by this key. When one is able to get your active keys he or she can transfer money from your wallet, and also withdraw money and for that reason the active keys must be secured.

Owner keys is a very important key because, with the owner keys you can change all the other keys that you left which includes active posting keys and memo key. This means this key must be properly secured.
