Software development must be based on more than just the experience and capabilities of your programmers and your team. The importance of obtaining a quality product lies in the risks that can be exploited by software vulnerabilities, which can jeopardize organizational assets, consumer confidence, operations, and a broad spectrum of applications. Several methods, techniques, and models have been suggested and developed to address software security. However, only a few have solid evidence for creating secure software applications. The main objective of this paper is to survey the literature for methods or models suitable for considering the integration of security in all or some of the phases of the software development life cycle and which ones are most considered or neglected. This study represents the beginning of research to generate a methodology that integrates security practices in agile software development, allowing inexperienced developers to create more secure applications. © 2023 by the authors.Fondecyt de Iniciación en investigación; Universidad de La Frontera, UFRO, (11230141, DI22-0043); Agencia Nacional de Investigación y Desarrollo, ANID
