 From my experience, security in Agile development is managed through continuous integration rather than upfront control. I have seen effective teams embed security checks into each sprint using automated testing, code reviews, and DevSecOps practices. I would recommend treating security as a shared responsibility across developers, testers, and product owners. This approach allows teams to identify vulnerabilities early without slowing innovation, ensuring security evolves alongside the product rather than being added as an afterthought.
