Abstract
A system described herein may maintain policy information associating a plurality of network credentials with respective device identifiers of User Equipment ('UEs') that are authorized to use respective network credentials to access a network. The system may receive network monitoring information indicating that a particular UE, associated with a particular device identifier, is accessing the network using a particular network credential; compare the particular device identifier and the particular network credential to the policy information; determine, based on comparing the particular device identifier and the particular network credential to the policy information, that the particular UE is not authorized to use the particular network credential; and output a notification to the network that the particular UE is not authorized to use the particular network credential to access the network, wherein the network suspends the particular network credential based on the notification.
