Disclosure Secret Key
What will happen if I disclosure my 'Secret Key' ? And if I change my master key, why the 'Secret Key' still the same as before?

Hi @Reason!
Please do not share the Secret Key with anyone (including us), it is something only you should know, since it's used to access your 1Password account together with your Master Password. If you disclose it, you are giving people half of the information required to access your account, so please make sure you never disclose it and you treat it like your Master Password.
And if I change my master key, why the 'Secret Key' still the same as before?
They are separate pieces of information that are required to login to your account: changing one does not automatically change the other (although you can certainly change both if you wish).
If you would like to read more about what the Secret Key protects you from, please see this documentation page:
