A method for leveraging a universal credential in an access control system according to one embodiment includes generating, by a cloud system, a CBOR web token for user access to at least one electronic lock, wherein the CBOR web token includes a group tag associated with a set of access rights for a group of users and a cryptographic signature, transmitting the CBOR web token to a user mobile device, receiving, by a first electronic lock, the CBOR web token from the user mobile device for access to a passageway secured by the first electronic lock, verifying an authenticity of the cryptographic signature of the CBOR web token and that the group tag of the CBOR web token is associated with a group authorized to access the passageway secured by the first electronic lock, and unlocking a lock mechanism in response to the verifications.
