Abstract
To adapt to the rapidly increasing vulnerabilities in software products and cyber threats that
exploit them, security professionals are actively working with software developers to produce more secure
systems. In software development, agile methods are increasingly adopted in critical software projects where
security risks are prominent challenges. This adoption stems from the fact that agile methods are highly
iterative and support delivering services and products in smaller batches which allows security professionals
to seamlessly integrate software development security activities with agile methodologies. In addition,
the iterative nature of agile software development encourages frequent inspections, tests, and patching of
software systems to mitigate cybersecurity risks and vulnerabilities. Considering the massive growth of the
Internet of Things (IoT) and Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) products, the challenge of software
development while addressing the security and safety concerns of these devices will continue to increase.
This paper presents a comprehensive and detailed review of agile software development in the context of
IoT, ITS, and their cybersecurity and risk challenges. Furthermore, we provide a systematic comparison of
the reviewed literature based on a set of defined criteria. Finally, we provide a broader outlook and an outline
for designing future security-enhanced agile software development solutions for IoT and ITS systems.
