“…The results show that security best practices during application development have a significant influence on applications created in regulated environments. 53 Software Product Maintenance: A Case Study [119] Maintenance is a major and important part of software development because it deals with changes to the software after delivery, also known as post-delivery activities. The objective of this paper is to conduct a case study to define and explain software maintenance activities in an organization.…”

Incorporating security into software development in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) is an increasingly relevant challenge and a crucial necessity, especially in an uncertain and fast-paced environment like that of an agile setting. Given the growing threat of cyberattacks, it is imperative to address this issue. This article examines and subsequently analyzes existing strategies in the literature regarding secure software development in the context of SMEs employing agile methodologies. The study initiates a systematic literature review to identify strategies employed in this context. The findings reveal that 57.9% of the studies present strategies to tackle security in agile software development, with 20.2% specifically focusing on SMEs. Subsequently, practices demonstrating success in integrating security measures into the software development lifecycle (SDLC) are analyzed and categorized. The results underscore the necessity of addressing security in the agile environment, as it remains a significant challenge in software development. Effective approaches are also required for small businesses to ensure application protection and long-term sustainability.INDEX TERMS agile development; security practices; secure development; SMEs; sustainability

“…The software developed should be robust and easy to maintain. A project's success depends on the software's capacity to be maintained (Butt et al, 2022). The ISO/IEC 25010 standard specifies eight high‐level quality criteria for software, one of which is software maintainability (ISO/IEC 25010, n.d.) as shown in Figure 1.…”

The software is changing rapidly with the invention of advanced technologies and methodologies. The ability to rapidly and successfully upgrade software in response to changing business requirements is more vital than ever. For the long‐term management of software products, measuring software maintainability is crucial. The use of soft computing techniques for software maintainability prediction has shown immense promise in software maintenance process by providing accurate prediction of software maintainability. To better understand the role of soft computing techniques for software maintainability prediction, we aim to provide a systematic literature review of soft computing techniques for predicting software maintainability. Firstly, we provide a detailed overview of software maintainability. Following this, we explore the fundamentals of software maintainability and the reasons for adopting soft computing methodologies for predicting software maintainability. Later, we examine the soft computing approaches employed in the process of software maintainability prediction. Furthermore, we discuss the difficulties and potential solutions associated with the use of soft computing techniques in predicting maintainability of software. Finally, we conclude the review with some promising future directions to drive further research innovations and developments in this promising area. This systematic literature review provides a comprehensive overview of the soft computing strategies utilized for software maintainability for future researchers.
