Therefore, the research has as general objective to analyze the authenticity of digital records produced and made available to the external public, in their portals, by Public Universities with an Archival course in the southern region of Brazil. The work is mainly justified by the Access to Information Law, which regulates the citizen's right to public information, and the vulnerability of digital archival documents, which are prone to changes in their content. Among the methodological aspects, the research was considered basic, exploratory and bibliographical, carrying out direct observation in the institutions web environments and data collection through the application of a questionnaire to such entities. The study shows the importance of investing in technology to enable the consumption of digital information, considering the great dissemination of information and the need to give credibility to accessible content, making it possible to access information safely and for a long period of time.
