Reviewing the challenges of security features in component based software development models

Component-based software development (CBSD) is an emerging technology that focuses on building systems by integrating existing software components. CBSD offers a range of benefits, such as an improved ability to reuse existing codes, reduced development costs of high-quality systems and faster development time. Several earlier studies have reported different challenges involved with using CBSD in software development. This paper therefore presents a review of these challenges and on existing CBSD models. A thorough Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted and the outcome of this review highlights the strengths and weaknesses of each model, which then serves as the basis for future research.
