On Inheriting Legacy Codebases
Inheriting a legacy code can be a daunting challenge. However, taking control of a legacy codebase can be very empowering.
Let's delve into strategies and practical techniques that enable you to reclaim your power over legacy codebases. From understanding the codebase's history, identifying pain points, and formulating a plan of attack, we’ll explore methods for transforming the tangled mess into a well-structured, maintainable system.

Venn Labs
Ben has spent more than 20 years helping companies improve how they build software, more recently the practical side of agentic engineering: getting tools like Claude Code to deliver production-quality work rather than demos, and structuring repos, prompts and workflows so the output is effective, resilient and secure. That rests on decades of building and shipping product in application security and identity. He is a Microsoft MVP and has given 100+ talks on six continents, including DEF CON.
