Precisely. It's hardly anything nefarious, like the member was implying.
It reads (to me) as "watch what you say (passwords) and watch what you do (handshakes and signs)".

But the text is also outdated. Mainly by language, in my opinion.

This is so funny.
Secret passwords and secret handshakes are only needed if there's some "other" secrets to protect.
You may have a secret password to your bank account, but that's only because you want to protect your bank balance information from prying eyes and access. Without that "other" secret, you wouldn't need secret passwords and secret handshakes.

I'm not an authority on Freemasonry itself. I'm an authority on what Freemasons themselves "say" is Freemasonry.
What Freemasons "protect" by "secrecy" is the "work" of the Freemasons in the lodge.
The "secret passwords" and "secret handshakes" are to ensure that outsiders cannot penetrate the veil and discover the "secret work" that masons do.

You have passwords in a fraternity so only members can access it.
It's hardly rocket science.

There's a TV show called "Turn" that shows the real use of things like passwords and secret signs. They are used to protect the channels of information, when passing secret information around, like in spy work. Anyone that watches that TV show will get a very good idea of what the Freemason's secret passwords and secret handshakes are really for.
