This paper analyses the acts performed by the Brazilian notaries and registrars at electronic databases and the new electronic internet device created by the Brazilian College of Notaries, called E-notariado, which acts as a digital certificate network with the purpose of establishing an Authority Certification. This platform includes various services such as cloud backup, notary clients' biometrics registration, digital signature for notarial acts, and a notary-chain that acts as a notary blockchain and an electronic real estate registry. The study stresses the need for a data protection law, concluding that the civil liability of notaries and registrars related to acts in electronic exchanges is subjective, as long as they respect the requirements established by the Brazilian data protection law. Suggestions to implement data protection are offered, using programs and platforms that benefit the development and the fulfilment of public interests, without harming or weakening the legal security and reliability of notarial acts and public records. Finally, the paper highlights the technological challenges inherent in the fourth industrial revolution, taking place at present.
