# What happens to gates managed by Envera’s Access Control System if the internet goes down?

The database for our Resident Vehicle Access Control Security System is stored locally inside access control modules. The system uses the Internet to receive updates from Envera or the property manager. If the Internet is down, the system will operate normally, but it will not receive updates until the Internet connection is restored.
