Methodology for detecting problematic connections with peripheral devices

Implementations of the present disclosure provide methods and systems for identifying peripheral devices with which problematic connections have been established. According to one embodiment, a method for detecting a model of peripheral device for which problematic connections with a computerized unit are common is disclosed. The method involves receiving values of each of one or more features of a particular connection between a computerized unit and a peripheral device, using the received values to determine a score for each of the features of the particular connection, calculating an overall connection score from the scores for each of the features, and generating a problematic peripheral device report including the model of the peripheral device if the overall connection score is indicative of a problematic connection.
