| Abstract |
The dependence on smart city applications has expanded in recent years. Consequently, the number of cyberattack attempts to exploit smart application vulnerabilities significantly increases. Therefore, improving smart application security during the software development process is mandatory to ensure sustainable smart cities. But the challenge is how to adopt security practices in the software development process. There are Several established and mature security testing frameworks exist that consider security requirements and testing during Several already established and mature security testing frameworks exist that consider security requirements and testing during Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), but there is a unique challenges posed by smart city applications and the need for a comprehensive approach to address the evolving threat landscape in this context. This paper proposed a framework that adopts security testing practices in all phases of the software development process. The proposed framework identifies several security activities and steps that can be applied in each phase of the software development process. |
