Abstract

Information security risks threaten the integrity of notarial services in an increasingly digital era. This study analyzes the legal frameworks governing notarial cyber risk management in the United States and internationally through doctrinal and comparative methodology. Key findings show existing regulations lack harmonized, tailored standards and oversight for notaries. Introducing nationwide requirements, audits, training programs, and sector-specific rules could significantly enhance risk management. Non-regulatory initiatives like education and public-private collaboration can complement legal measures. The analysis aims to advance academic and policy discourse on optimizing notarial cybersecurity through comprehensive yet adaptable regulation.
