RE: Important Security Announcement: Steemit CEO Ned Scott

in #steemit8 years ago

I am new here, but excited about the project. Is there a guide somewhere that explains the best way to secure one's Steemit balances, especially if they grow somewhat large? Or is it just a matter of using strong passwords? Where are my private keys being stored when I sign up? Any other security tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm probably not much further than you are in this new platform, but you can find your keys in wallet/permissions. I changed the passwords that access my keys this morning. I use a password manager (KeePass) and the are strong passwords, but easily accessible to me on any of my gadgets.

I'd like to know the difference between 'active key' and 'owner key'. Anybody?
