What does the notary or security bond protect?

The notary
The signer
The public
The state

The correct answer is: The public

A notary or security bond is a type of insurance that protects the public from financial loss caused by errors, omissions, or misconduct by the notary or security bond issuer. This means that it does not protect the notary themselves (option A), the person signing the document (option B), or the state (option D). Instead, it provides a safeguard for individuals or businesses who may be negatively affected by a notary or security bond's actions.
