1. A system, comprising:
one or more hardware processors configured to:
identify a user equipment that is to access a private network; obtain, original dynamic radio frequency (RF) response information associated with the user equipment,
wherein the original dynamic RF response information includes data indicating an RF response of the user equipment to a first one or more millimeter wave (mmWave) signals provided to the user equipment at one or more instants of time within a time period associated with at least one of:
formation of the user equipment,
an initial addition of the user equipment to the private network, or
a modification to the user equipment;
determine subsequent dynamic RF response information associated with the user equipment,
wherein the subsequent dynamic RF response information includes data indicating an RF response of the user equipment to a second one or more mmWave signals provided to the user equipment at one or more instants of time after the time period;
authenticate the user equipment when respective RF variations indicated by the RF response of the user equipment to the first one or more mmWave signals and respective RF variations indicated by the RF response of the user equipment to the second one or more mmWave signals are the same or similar;
obtain, after authenticating the user equipment, dynamic RF response information associated with the user equipment and additional dynamic information generated by the user equipment, wherein the additional dynamic information is included in one or more mmWave signals provided by the user equipment;
determine, based on the dynamic RF response information and the additional dynamic information, a current behavior profile of the user equipment;
determine, based on the original dynamic RF response information and prior additional dynamic information associated with the user equipment, a baseline behavior profile of the user equipment;
generate, based on the current behavior profile and the baseline behavior profile, comparison information; and
grant or deny, based on the comparison information, the user equipment access to a resource of the private network.
