Phishing emails don't have typos anymore. A deepfake can sound exactly like your boss. And AI can now find serious software flaws by the thousands, faster than anyone can patch them. Cybersecurity is going through its biggest shift in a generation, and AI is on both sides of the fight. Ryan Powell, VP of Global Security Transformation and Strategy at MetLife, will share how a Fortune 100 company is putting AI to work in security, and how it governs AI itself, so the helpful bots don't become the next breach. Expect real-world examples, a few cautionary tales, and a candid look at his own path into the field. Students will leave knowing where cybersecurity is headed, which skills matter most, and how to get in early.

Also, in this session, MetLife’s Early Career Recruiting team will discuss MetLife’s Summer 2027 METx (MetLife Emerging Talent Experience) Internship Program featuring opportunities in technology, cybersecurity, and data & analytics!
