Techniques for wireless communications are described. A first device may receive first control signaling that may indicate a second device in a wireless communications system. The first device may then identify, based on the received first control signaling, a set of devices for tracking the second device in the wireless communications system. In some examples, the first device may then transmit second control signaling to the identified set of devices for tracking the second device in the wireless communications system. The first device may then receive, based on the transmitted second control signaling, coordination information from the set of devices. The received coordination information may be associated with the second device. The coordination information collected by the set of devices may be used to predict changes in an environment surrounding the second device. By predicting dynamic changes in the environment, disruptions in wireless communication may be prevented.

Methods and systems are described herein for improvements for cybersecurity of telecommunication devices. For example, cybersecurity for telecommunication devices may be improved by analyzing activity log data of telecommunication devices for a candidate event (e.g., the uploading of malware) and disabling one or more services of a telecommunication device. By doing so, cybersecurity for telecommunication devices may be improved by detecting a possible malware intrusion attempt and disabling one or more services of the telecommunication devices. For example, activity log data of telecommunication devices may be obtained. A candidate event indicating malware may be detected in the activity log data. A number of proximate telecommunication devices satisfying a proximity threshold condition may be determined. The number of proximate telecommunication devices that satisfy a density threshold condition may be determined. Responsive to the number of telecommunication devices satisfying a density threshold condition, services of telecommunication devices may be disabled.

Prompt and secure data communication paring concepts are described. In one example, a method for data communications includes a client device receiving an advertising packet from a peripheral device, comparing a signal strength indicator for the advertising packet to a threshold, generating a session key based on the comparing, and transmitting the session key to the peripheral device. The method also includes communicating and acknowledging one or more data chunks between the devices through a secure communications channel. The concepts are different that traditional pairing techniques for short-range, low-power wireless data communications in that secure communications channels can be achieved automatically, relatively more quickly, and repeatedly without the need for user intervention. The secure communications channels can be established and reestablished without the need for traditional pairing techniques.
