Summary:
WebRTC enables peer-to-peer communications. Identity features enable the identification of WebRTC peers using a generic identity provider interface. Stream isolation provides sites a way to foreswear access to media so that - in combination with identity - users can be sure that their media is being sent to a specific peer (and that media from that peer came from that peer). This enables secure calling that does not rely on trust in the web site or application that performs signalling.
