Abstract

There is described a device and method of removing unwanted data from original data for prohibiting unwanted data transfer between a first device and a second device along a communication pathway. The communication pathway includes at least one data channel and at least one control channel. The method includes providing programmable hardware at a position along the at least one control channel. Original data applied to the device includes control data and associated protocol data, the control data including wanted and unwanted data. The control data is checked to determine whether the associated protocol data conforms to at least one predetermined protocol mode criteria at the programmable hardware. The programmable hardware is terminated where the control data is deemed to be unwanted data. The resulting data which is left over is substantially free of unwanted data, enabling associated protocol data transmission along the data channel.
