The globalization of the economy has forced organizations to face several challenges in the broader business fields to achieve the agility and efficiency needed to remain competitive and adapt quickly to market changes. This situation has led software companies to adopt agile methodologies in the software development process in order to reduce development costs and respond more efficiently to the high market dynamics and constantly changing requirements.
Agile methodologies, however have been specially formulated to work well in small teams. The scalability of agile methodologies is a challenge and assumes even greater difficulties when producing secure software. This talk aims to explore this phenomenon by looking at different approaches for building secure software in large-scale agile environments, considering its incorporation in frameworks such as LeSS, SAFe, or Spotify, but also its integration in hybrid frameworks that can address the rigidity criticisms typically associated with these high-complexity frameworks.

  • Working software over comprehensive documentation

  • Customer collaboration over contract negotiation

  • Responding to change over following a plan
