Overview
== Overview ==
This specification, BrowserID, defines a mechanism for websites to request, from the user via her user-agent, a signed assertion of email-address ownership. Web sites can use this mechanism to register users on their first visit and log them back in on their subsequent visits. The trust path for these assertions of email-address ownership is designed to be federated and decentralized: individual domains can certify their own users. A fallback secondary authentication mechanism is defined proposed to bootstrap the protocol for domains that do not yet support it.
