Well, insofar as Electronic Notarizations go, you really can't have the one without the other; the digital message (identifier) "rides" with the actual notarization. As VT points out, "only works on digital files, Not paper ones."
More questions: So then, why is eNotary responsible for maintaining the digital record? What software is deemed suitable/reliable for this? Is there some standard "blockchain" (secure) model for the world of eNotarizations?
Stuff that keeps one up at night (when one desperately needs her sleep)!
(Wikipedia) Blockchain: A growing list of records (blocks), that are linked using cryptography. Each block contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block, a timestamp, and transaction data. By design, a blockchain is resistant to modification of the data.
