1. A device, comprising:
- a processor configured to;
generate a first signal using a first communication protocol, wherein the first signal corresponds to data transmitted to the processor using the first communication protocol, wherein the first communication protocol is a common protocol utilized to communicate between the processor and at least one node coupled to the processor in a network;
generate a second signal using a second communication protocol, wherein the second signal comprises decoy data generated by the processor as part of a network security protocol, wherein the second signal is generated independently from the data transmitted to the processor; and
transmit the first signal as an actual signal for reception by the node and transmit the second signal as a decoy signal in parallel with one another.

Abstract
A device comprises a processor. The processor is configured to generate a first signal using a first communication protocol. The first signal corresponds to data received by the processor. The processor is configured to generate a second signal using a second communication protocol. The second signal comprises fabricated data generated by the processor. Additionally, the processor is configured to transmit the first signal. The processor is also configured to transmit the second signal.
