Hello steemians welcome to my today's post. In acknowledgment to the accomplishment task, I will be fulfilling my achievement task 2 being basic understanding on steemit security system.

It is proposed that every system, organization and any monetary services should protect their projects because any key or password is likely to be jeopardized, so it is in this blockchain. Every account has its own passcode which is the most vital thing.

If you someday compromise or publicize it to any third party website, then you will have to have it in mind that your owned tokens (STEEM, SBD, & SP) will be seized and you will have yourself to be blamed.
