“We discovered two common taxonomies used to identify DevSecOps. The first taxonomy by Smeds et al. (2015) identifies the following elements: Capabilities, Cultural Enablers, and Technological Enablers. A second taxonomy by Humble and Molesky (2011) identifies Culture, Automation, Measurement, and Sharing (CAMS) as key elements of DevSecOps.”

“In this case, researchers had certain preconceived notions in this topic, e.g., the identified elements of DevOps/DevSecOps (Capabilities, Cultural Enablers, and Technological Enablers) (Smeds et al., 2015) and the CAMS (Culture, Automation, Measurement, and Sharing) model (Humble and Molesky, 2011), that might have influenced the ways of coding and theming.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
