Traditional systems and methods may fail to provide for disrupting unauthorized communications by generating low frequency signals in the same band as the low frequency bands of the low frequency radio communication devices. Embodiments of the present disclosure provides for overcoming the limitations faced by the traditional systems and methods by generating, via a square wave generator and a device coil of a low frequency radio communication device, low frequency signals; integrating the low frequency signals on a computing device by implementing a power controlling technique; and disrupting, via the integrated low frequency signals on the computing device, unauthorized communications in the low frequency radio communication device.
