Explanation

The command that will set the sticky bit on a directory called devops with 755 file permission is chmod 1755 devops. This command will use chmod to change the mode of the directory devops to 1755, which means that the owner has read, write, and execute permissions (7), the group has read and execute permissions (5), and others have read and execute permissions (5). The first digit 1 indicates that the sticky bit is set on the directory, which is a special permission that prevents users from deleting or renaming files in the directory that they do not own.
