A method for updating firmware on a device in an information handling system in a resilient manner is described. The method includes receiving a new firmware for updating a device; storing a current firmware image or a working copy of the current firmware of the device in a volatile memory; updating the device with the new firmware after storing the current firmware in the volatile memory; setting a first boot flag to perform diagnostics at a next reset of the information handling system based on updating the device with the new firmware; and determining, by the information handling system at the next reset in response to the first boot flag, whether the device satisfies at least one criteria indicating the new firmware is operational on the device. An information handling system that includes the device and performs the method is also described.
