Abstract
The objective of this research was to propose a conceptual cybersecurity framework aimed at guiding developers in generating and implementing technological solutions for Edge Computing and Internet of Things (IoT) environments. The framework integrates NIST standards and SecDevOps practices, and was developed based on an extensive literature review, synthesizing evidence-based knowledge to offer a comprehensive perspective on actions necessary to address cybersecurity challenges in these environments. The core element of the framework, Govern, led to four primary components: Identity, Protect, Detect, and Respond and Recover. Each component outlines specific actions for identifying cybersecurity vulnerabilities, implementing strategies, and prioritizing privacy and integrity requirements. In order to establish a solid theoretical foundation of the proposal, the framework was conceptually validated through a qualitative method for collecting feedback from a panel of 35 experts from industry, government, and academia. Evaluators confirmed the framework’s relevance, highlighting its integration of NIST standards and SecDevOps practices. This combination is regarded as offering a modular and effective approach for aligning cybersecurity practices with governance principles, addressing cybersecurity challenges, enhancing compliance readiness, supporting secure development, and fostering resilient architectures in IoT and Edge Computing environments. The findings of this evaluation are perceived as promising, since the proposal is considered potentially beneficial to the field of cybersecurity by providing a structured practical framework that could serve as a foundational tool for strengthening security practices in Edge Computing and IoT environments.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
