The DevSecOps and Agency Theory
Jong Seok Lee · 2018
An effective implementation of DevSecOps requires an increased focus on collaborations between different work groups or disciplines within IT (development, security, and operations/implementation). Nonetheless, different groups are still too often reluctant to trust each other, or inter-group conflicts tend to commonly occur. Against this backdrop, in this research I develop a framework based on Agency Theory that sheds light on the role of goal incongruency and information asymmetry in the DevSecOps context.
