OWASP DevSecOps Maturity Model (DSOMM) for Auditors

What does OWASP DevSecOps Maturity Model (DSOMM) require of a Auditor?

The OWASP DevSecOps Maturity Model (DSOMM) provides a framework for integrating security into DevOps practices across six dimensions (Culture, Automation, Measurement, Sharing, Governance, and Architecture) and five maturity levels (Initial, Managed, Defined, Quantitatively Managed, Optimizing). Under OWASP DevSecOps Maturity Model (DSOMM), which defines 6 controls, a Auditor's work is deciding which controls you own outright, which you share and which belong to another team, then holding the evidence for the first group.
