Popis: There has been a surge in number of software security threats and vulnerabilities in recent times. At the same time, expectations towards software and data security are growing. Thus there is a need to ensure that security-related tasks are effectively integrated in the software development process. However, integrating security practices with agile software development is not trivial due to, for instance, differences in process dynamics and concentration on functional vs non-functional requirements. In this short paper we present a literature review on challenges and solutions when adopting security in agile software development contexts. Our findings show that there are ongoing efforts to integrate security-practices in agile methods, but more research is needed to make the processes more optimized and simpler for developers.
