Abstract: A method, non-transitory computer readable medium and device that assists with preventing distributed denial of service attack includes receiving a request for a web resource from a client computing device. The received requested for the web resource is determined for presence of referrer header information. When the received request is determined to include the referrer header information, then the referrer header information is checked whether it includes a known domain and a valid cookie associated with the known domain. A distributed denial of service attack is prevented by providing a proactive challenge to the requesting client computing device when received request for the web resource does not include the referrer header information or when the referrer header information comprises the known domain and does not include the valid cookie.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, data is received indicative of a plurality of insurance claims. It may then be automatically determined that a first insurance claim is associated with a first type of insurance and that a second insurance claim is associated with a second type of insurance. The received data associated with the first insurance claim may be analyzed in accordance with first segmentation logic to determine a first segment classification appropriate for the first insurance claim. Similarly, the received data associated with the second insurance claim may be automatically analyzed in accordance with second segmentation logic to determine a second segment classification appropriate for the second insurance claim. Indications of the first and second segment classifications may then be transmitted (e.g., to a load balancing and assignment engine that automatically selects claim handlers for insurance claims).
