Steemit Account Security and Recovery

Preventive Measures: - Don’t keep a lot of SBD in your account - Use your Private Posting Key to log into your account - Active Key is used for transfers, power ups, etc. - Master Password is only needed for account changes - Keep your Master Password offline (cold storage) and keep it secure - Note that your keys are case-sensitive - Update your Master Password from time to time (recommended every 30 days) - NEVER share your Private Keys with anyone... Especially your Master Key! Recovering Your Account: - Go to Stolen Account Recovery from the Main Menu - Supply most recent Master Password (used in the last 30 days), your username, and email - Without your keys you cannot recovery your account at all - If you have just your posting and active keys you can still recover your funds but not your original account - Account Recovery must be completed within the first 30 days of your account being compromised Further reading on Account Security: - Steemit Account Security - Steem Private and Public Keys Demystified
