1. A method comprising: encrypting a message using an encryption technique for a first radio access technology; sending, to a user equipment, at least a portion of the encrypted message using a different, second radio access technology, where sending using the second radio access technology does not further encrypt the at least a portion of the encrypted message; and filtering incoming transmissions on the second radio access technology using a medium access control address of the second radio access technology; wherein the method further comprises sending, to the user equipment using the first radio access technology, instructions for the user equipment to configure for operation on the second radio access technology, wherein the instructions include an identification of a second radio access technology access point, wherein the encrypted message is also integrity protected, and wherein the message is configured to discard a packet data unit and an integrity verification failure identification is indicated when an integrity verification fails; where the first radio access technology is a Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN) packet data convergence protocol and the second radio access technology is a wireless local area network, wherein the encryption of the message comprises only a single Long Term Evolution (LTE) encrypted and wherein the sending of the at least a portion of the LTE encrypted message using the wireless local area network does not further encrypt the at least a portion of the LTE encrypted message.
