Abstract
A method for operating an access control device having a processor, a memory, and an internet connection comprises receiving a credential from a user; checking, by comparing the credential to matching credential information that would indicate the user is authorized to enter stored in the memory of the access control device, if no matching credential information that indicates the user is authorized is found in the memory of the access control device, then checking, at a remote cloud server, a list of buffered credential information for the matching credential information that indicates the user is authorized, and if the matching credential information that indicates the user is authorized is found, sending an unlock signal from the remote cloud server to the access control device.
