Companies are always looking for competitive advantage, costs reduction, quality increasing and more productivity. Software development is part of this context, with contributions from the areas of Software Engineering and Project Management, aiming at producing software with quality, with less waste, and with the speed required in today's market. To meet this challenge, the software development industry has sought new ways to develop new products. The adaptive approaches, with practices that seek to be more flexible than prescriptive approaches, often considered cumbersome and slow, emphasize the agility of software development processes, seeking greater efficiency in situations where changes are common. The Scrum framework is one of the most popular agile methods and it is considered an adaptive approach for project management. It defines a set of practices implemented through iterative and incremental cycles, with constant involvement and visibility of the customer, providing quick delivery and business value. However, risk management, which is a very relevant practice in conducting projects, is implicitly treated in projects that use adaptive approaches such as Scrum. Thus, the aim of this work is to develop an empirical study that seeks to identify how the list of common risks found in the software project management literature is managed in Scrum. In order to develop this research we have used secondary (systematic literature review) and primary studies (field study). This research contributes to the theory and practice of software project management, specifically in the area of risk management and its intersection with the Scrum framework.
