Summary: | The use of one or more device health values to indicate the health status of a computing device may enable operating system developers to directly manage the security configuration of the computing device. For instance, a device health value is generated based on a state of the hardware component and/or a state of a software stack that includes the operating system at boot up. The device health value may be compared to a reference health value to determine whether the computing device is in a secured state. Based on the device health value not matching the reference health value, it is determined that the computing device is operating in an unexpected state. Also, a recovery environment may be implemented on the computing device in order to fix any errors with the computing device. |
