Abstract
Systems and methods are described for verifying functionality of a computing device. A set of rules are sent to a computing device identifying a device driver. Data is received from the one device that is indicative of collected driver data of the computing device. The data is collected by a driver verifier function executing on the computing device. The driver verifier function is configured to capture information associated with the identified device driver identified by the set of rules. The received data is parsed to categorize the data with previously collected driver data of other computing devices. The data is categorized based on attributes of the collected driver data. The categorized data is provided for analysis of the driver health on the computing device.
