1. A method for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
receiving control signaling identifying a configuration of a set of time intervals for communication with a base station, the set of time intervals including a subset of time intervals for which the UE is to perform a physical layer security procedure;
activating a timer associated with performing the physical layer security procedure; and
communicating, via the subset of time intervals, one or more messages using the physical layer security procedure based at least in part on the timer being active for the subset of time intervals.
