Steem Keys. Some words about security

Steem is a new system. There has never been such type of system before. Therefore, the logic of the security system is new here. This is a necessity.
As always, our GSG Lessons are as simple as possible and efficient.
Each Steem-account has 4 passwords (key).
You can see them through www.steemit.com
See the picture.
It is not difficult. And this is a good security system.
Master/owner key is the key to the your account. You can enter it only at www.steemit.com. Maybe something in the future will change in relation to the places where you can use Master key.
With this key you can change all other keys.
Here is an example.
On good site you have been asked to enter your Posting key. The site was hacked by hackers. And posting keys became available to criminals. It's not scary. Using the Master key you can change the other yoyr keys. And criminals can only put a couple of upvotes.
You can read the information about each key at www.steemit.com. But I tell it by my own words.
Posting key. It is needed to create posts and put upvotes. This key may be given to trailers and other similar systems.
Active key. It is key to your money. Without this instrument it is impossible to do the financial transactions.
Memo Key. You can use it for simple authorization on the service. Perhaps in the future it will have another meaning.
Conclusion. The most important is Master Key. Keep it in security.
Steem has a modern and new security system. It requires understanding and precision.
