Achievement 2 @digitalsam Task: Basic security on steem

in #achievement23 years ago

It's time to do my Achievement lessons, this time I am on to the Achievement 2

Question:
Have you received all your keys on stermit?

Answer;
Yes, all of my keys are retrieved and are intact. So I am good to go.

Question:
Do you know each of these key functions and restrictions?

Answer:
Yes, from the posting key, the active key, the owner key and even the memo key are well understood as to how they work. They are as follows;

Posting key:
This is the regular. It is needed for my day to day activities, such as posting, commenting, following and even to mute an account among others.

Active key:
This is a little more advance than the posting key. This key is used for more sensitive issues, like making transfer from one account to the other, powering up, and even buying steem.

Owner Key:
A very important key that should be guided, and never allow to be tampered with. Yes, with this key, one can change the other keys, and it can also be used to recover a lost key. So, by all means, it should never be allowed to be compromised. It is randomly use to make certain changes or for recovery purposes.

Memo key:
This key is used when it comes to sending and receiving messages.

Question;
How do you plan to keep your master password?

I have copied it to a place I alone have access, a flash drive that I use to save files. I have also make a backup in another device that is completely offline.

Question:
How do you transfer your token to another steem user account

Below is how to do just that. First is to log in to my wallet and go down to the steem column and click the drop- down arrow and choose transfer which is the first option in the box, as you can see below.

Then choose transfer which is the first option

Below is the place you are going to land.
Here you input the details, the account you are transferring to, as well as the amount. You also see your available balance from which you are making the transfer. When you are done, you click next, that is it. The screenshot below shows just that.

Now let's take a look at how to power up.
You click the same drop- down arrow, and now choose the third option which is power up. See the screenshot below.

The last screenshot shows the place you are landing to put the amount you are converting, and then click power up to seal the deal
