# Does Kisi work Offline?

Our offices occasionally experience internet outages, so I'm curious what happens if connectivity is lost. Can employees still access the building, or does everything stop working until the connection is restored?

Yes. Kisi provides encrypted and authenticated offline access support for both physical and mobile credentials, helping ensure uninterrupted access even during internet outages.
Kisi readers can cache access permissions offline for up to 36 hours and can process authenticated unlock requests directly from a user's phone as a backup method.
For organizations using third-party readers, Kisi controllers can cache access rights based on recent activity, allowing authorized users to continue accessing doors with physical credentials even when connectivity is temporarily unavailable.
