Hello everyone in Steemit Community. Today I want to talk about the Basic security on Steem. Since I was a newbie I don't have enough knowledge of the steemit platform. But in this task, I learn by reading some posts in the newcomer's community and I understand what should I do to make my account safe.

I need to understand, What are the keys that are commonly used in steemit? How I keep my password safe. How to increase your steem power. How to transfer your steem to another steem wallet.

There are different types of Steemit Keys

We have the PRIVATE MASTER KEY which is used to generate a password if you lost or forgot your private keys and also it will restore your keys in steemit. You can use this key to open your account in steemit when you lost your private keys. You must secure this by writing on a piece of paper and keep it in a private place where nobody will know about it.

We have also the PRIVATE POSTING KEY. This is normally used to login into your steemit account. It will authorize you to make an upvote to another steemit user. You can also create comments in their post. You can also make a resteem of other posts you like so that your follower will see the post you have resteem.

PRIVATE OWNER KEY is a key that is used to reset all your keys in steemit. It is generally used to restore your account if the owner of the account will change their keys when their account was risked. It is recommended to keep this password safe offline.

PRIVATE ACTIVE KEY is a key that is commonly used in transferring your earnings to another steemit account. Also, it is used in powering up your steempower and power down.

PRIVATE MEMO KEY is a key that is used in a decrypted private memo when transferring funds especially on SBD withdrawal on your steemit account.

Since the steemit platform introduces the new steemit keys inTron account this public and Private Key.

TRON PRIVATE KEY is a key that has been authorized in your Tron account. This is used in signing transactions such as transferring tokens, freezing, and voting.

How to keep your password safe?

Base on my experience when I open an account on any social media site I will write the password on a piece of paper and put it in a wallet or a notebook. You keep the password offline or you may send it to your account in messenger or the phone notes.

How to increase your steempower?

We can increase my steempower by creating good quality content in my post. Then also if ever I have enough money I will buy a steem to convert into steem power through powered up. I will show step by step you how to power up your steem to steempower
