Abstract
A security system generates a digital signature for a small cell of a wireless network and assigns the digital signature to the small cell for connecting to the wireless network. The digital signature can be generated based on a connectivity schedule for the small cell. When the security system obtains a connection request from the small cell to connect to the wireless network, the security system compares an instance of the digital signature included in the connection request with an expected digital signature and compares the point in time when the connection request was communicated with an expected time indicated in the connectivity schedule. The security system detects an anomaly when the instance of the digital signature deviates from the expected digital signature or the point in time deviates from the expected time, and causes performance of an action based on a type or degree of the anomaly.
