In this episode of the Elevate the Game Podcast, Jorge Abreu and Eric Bodiwala sit down with Eddie DeCurtis, a longtime technology and wireless industry leader and the Co-Founder and CEO of Shush Inc. Eddie shares his journey from growing up in New York City to leading innovation in mobile security on a global scale.
Eddie explains how mobile authentication has evolved, why traditional SMS one-time passwords are no longer secure, and how mobile network data can be used to prevent fraud without creating friction for users. He breaks down real-world examples like SIM swap fraud, call-based scams, and how banks and fintech companies can protect customers automatically in the background.
The conversation also dives into startup leadership, company culture, and why hiring the right people early matters so much. Eddie shares how listening to customers led him to write a company “thesis,” build the Shush platform, and grow the business rapidly in under two years.
Beyond technology, Eddie talks openly about entrepreneurship, imposter syndrome, passive income, real estate, and long-term wealth building. This episode is packed with insights for founders, operators, and anyone curious about how security, mobile technology, and business strategy intersect.
