Authenticate with websites without passwords using asymmetrical encryption, similar to how Facebook login works but without ever touching an external server.
Sign blockchain transactions without exposing private keys. Scatter receives transactions from web applications and returns only signatures for the transactions.
Websites can request personal information from a user's Scatter such as anemail, first/last name, date of birth, or a location (address, city, state, country, zipcode, phone ).
Web Applications will never be able to get any information about a user without their explicit consent.****[3]

By allowing web applications to be able to request personal information such as an email along with a transaction signature users get the benefit of single-click transactions instead of having to be lead through multi-page forms.

Scatter's RIDL (Reputation and Identity Layer) allows Identities registered with it to become unique across all networks and Blockchains, gain and give reputation, and take part in a global effort to elevate the entire web's safety by creating a decentralized blacklist/whitelist of applications in a Sybil resistant manner.
