1. A thread network apparatus, comprising:
a transceiver configured to transmit and receive communication signals over a thread network;
a network processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver, and configured to operate in a state selected from a set of states to manage network functions associated with the thread network;
a first memory that stores a first dataset comprising thread network parameters associated with the network functions, wherein the first memory is a nonvolatile memory with a first level of security protection,
wherein the network processor is further configured to manage the network functions based on a second dataset stored in a second memory with a second level of security protection that is less than the first level of security protection, and wherein the second dataset has a same content as the first dataset; and
a host processor communicatively coupled to the network processor and the first memory, wherein the host processor is configured to:
store the first dataset in the first memory;
delete the first dataset from the first memory; or
read the first dataset from the first memory.
