1. A data communication network, comprising:
a data communication node configured to establish a data connection with each of a plurality of user equipment devices within a coverage area of the data communication node and, for each data connection, and to provide beamforming information for each data connection that identifies a location of the associated user equipment device within the coverage area;
a plurality of imaging devices configured to provide image information for the coverage area; and
an information handling system coupled to the data communication node and to the imaging devices, wherein the information handling system is configured to receive the image information, to determine that the data communication node has established a first data connection with a first user equipment device, to authenticate the first user equipment device, to correlate a first location of the first user equipment device within the coverage area based upon first beamforming information for the first data connection and upon the image information, to attest to a first identity of the first user equipment device based upon the correlation of the first location, to determine that the data communication node has established a second data connection with a second user equipment device, to authenticate the second user equipment device, to correlate a second location of the second user equipment device within the coverage area based upon second beamforming information for the second data connection and upon the image information, to attest to a second identity of the second user equipment device based upon the correlation of the second location, and to establish an attestation zone within the coverage area based upon the attestation of the first identity and the second identity.
