@ "Agile is inherently more secure"

I'm sorry, but I don't believe that statement to be even close to being accurate.

Having more people to check a piece of code makes sense; and the more people working on it, the greater chance of finding mistakes; but only if all of the people working on it understand the actual issues. If they don't, then it doesn't matter in the slightest how many people work on a particular piece of code.
