Achievement 2 @rans69 Task: Basic Security on Steem.

in Newcomers' Community3 years ago (edited)

Everything we do in our everyday lives revolves around security. From the digital to the real world, everything is connected. As a result, it is up to each individual to prioritize his or her own security. That is why this Achievement assignment is critical for me and every new member of steem

Question 1.
YES. I've gotten all of the keys and stored them to my cloud and google drive. Furthermore, I had downloaded them offline as well.

Question 2
Yeah! I am familiar with the functions and limitations of each key. It was a little perplexing at first but after watching series of Youtube videos and going through @kiwiscanfly’s article, I have gotten an ideal meaning to it

These are the keys, in no systematic manner:

Users may utilize the Posting Key to vote, resteem, remark, edit, and follow or mute other accounts. It is the key that is most often utilized. It's the first key, in my opinion, that every user has access to or is aware of. It's best to keep the rate of use of this key low to avoid it being compromised.

Transferring cash, converting steem dollars, powering up or down transactions, changing profile data, and placing a market order are all done with the Active key. It is used for extremely delicate tasks and should be handled accordingly.
Finally, there's the Owner key. Among the other keys, this is the most significant. This is due to the fact that it has the ability to alter any account key, including the owner key. It is intended to be kept offline and used solely to recover a hacked account.

The last key I discovered is the Memo key. When transferring cash, it is utilized to encrypt and decrypt notes. To accomplish this, use the pound /# symbol before the key.

Question 3.
Because of the necessity of my master password, I intend to keep it offline in a secure and appropriate location.

Question 4.
Yes, indeed! I know how to do the transfer, but I've never done it before. I'm looking forward to accumulating enough steem to be able to make such transfers.

I'd want to walk you through how I learned to transfer my steem token to a different steem user account after logging into your STEEMIT account.
