`
`PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS
`
`Disclosure and discovery activity in this action are likely to involve production of confidential,
`
`proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public disclosure and from use for
`
`any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be warranted. This Order does not confer blanket
`
`protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and the protection it affords from public
`
`disclosure and use extends only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential
`
`treatment under the applicable legal principles. As set forth in Section 14.4 below, this Protective Order
`
`does not entitle the Parties to file confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth
`
`the procedures that must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks
`
`permission from the court to file material under seal.
`
`2.
`
`DEFINITIONS
`
`2.1
`
`Challenging Party: a Party or Non-Party that challenges the designation of information or
`
`items under this Order.
`
`2.2
`
`“CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items: information (regardless of how it is generated,
`
`stored or maintained) or tangible things that qualify for protection under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure
`
`26(c).
`
`2.3
`
`Counsel (without qualifier): Outside Counsel of Record and House Counsel (as well as
`
`their support staff).
`
`2.4
`
`Designated House Counsel: House Counsel who seek access to “HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” information in this matter.
`
`2.5
`
`Designating Party: a Party or Non-Party that designates information or items that it
`
`produces in disclosures or in responses to discovery as “CONFIDENTIAL,” “HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY,” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE
`
`CODE.”
`
`2.6
`
`Disclosure or Discovery Material: all items or information, regardless of the medium or
`
`manner in which it is generated, stored, or maintained (including, among other things, testimony,
`
`transcripts, and tangible things), that are produced or generated in disclosures or responses to discovery

`
`Expert: a person with specialized knowledge or experience in a matter pertinent to the
`
`litigation who (1) has been retained by a Party or its counsel to serve as an expert witness or as a
`
`consultant in this action, (2) is not a past or current employee of a Party and (3) at the time of retention,
`
`is not anticipated to become an employee of a Party or of a Party's competitor. These limitations do not
`
`prevent Dr. Eric Cole from serving as an expert in this case based on the declaration he filed with the
`
`Court on April 30, 2018 (Dkt. No. 76).
`
`2.8
`
`“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” Information or Items:

`
`Party would create a substantial risk of serious harm that could not be avoided by less restrictive means.
`
`If a Producing Party designates non-technical, purely financial or license information as “HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” the Receiving Party may challenge the non-
`
`technical portions of that Information or Items as “CONFIDENTIAL” (defined in Section 2.2) under
`
`Section 6 below.
`
`2.9
`
`“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” Information or Items: extremely
`
`sensitive “Confidential Information or Items” representing computer code (code that is compiled or
`
`interpreted) and associated comments and revision histories, disclosure of which to another Party or
`
`Non-Party would create a substantial risk of serious harm that could not be avoided by less restrictive
`
`means.

`
`does not include Outside Counsel of Record or any other outside counsel.
`
`2.11 Non-Party: any natural person, partnership, corporation, association, or other legal entity
`
`not named as a Party to this action.
`
`2.12 Outside Counsel of Record: attorneys who are not employees of a party to this action but
`
`are retained to represent or advise a party to this action and have appeared in this action on behalf of that
`
`party or are affiliated with a law firm which has appeared on behalf of that party.
`
`2.13 Party: any party to this action, including all of its officers, directors, employees,

`
`Party.
`
`3.
`
`SCOPE
`
`The protections conferred by this Order cover not only Protected Material (as defined above), but
`
`also (1) any information copied or extracted from Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts,
`
`summaries, or compilations of Protected Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or presentations
`
`by Parties or their Counsel that might reveal Protected Material. However, the protections conferred by
`
`this Order do not cover the following information: (a) any information that is in the public domain at the
`
`time of disclosure to a Receiving Party or becomes part of the public domain after its disclosure to a
`
`Receiving Party as a result of publication not involving a violation of this Order, including becoming
`
`part of the public record through trial or otherwise; and (b) any information known to the Receiving
`
`Party prior to the disclosure or obtained by the Receiving Party after the disclosure from a source who
`
`obtained the information lawfully and under no obligation of confidentiality to the Designating Party.
`
`Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by a separate agreement or order.
`
`4.
`
`DURATION
`
`Even after final disposition of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations imposed by this
`
`Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court order
`
`otherwise directs. Final disposition shall be deemed to be the later of (1) dismissal of all claims and

`

`
`DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
`
`5.1
`
`Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. Each Party or Non-
`
`Party that designates information or items for protection under this Order must take care to limit any
`
`such designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate standards. To the extent it is
`
`practical to do so, the Designating Party must designate for protection only those parts of material,
`
`documents, items, or oral or written communications that qualify – so that other portions of the material,
`
`documents, items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably
`
`within the ambit of this Order.
`
`If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it designated for
`
`protection do not qualify for protection at all or do not qualify for the level of protection initially
`
`asserted, that Designating Party must promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the
`
`mistaken designation.
`
`5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this Order (see,
`
`e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or
`
`Discovery Material that qualifies for protection under this Order must be clearly so designated before
`
`the material is disclosed or produced.
`
`Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
`
`(a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic documents, but excluding
`
`transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing Party affix the legend
`
`“CONFIDENTIAL,” “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY,” or “HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” to each page that contains protected material. If only a portion or
`
`portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify
`
`the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins) and must specify, for
`
`each portion, the level of protection being asserted.

`
`
`
`A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents or materials available for inspection need
`
`not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated which material it would
`
`like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the designation, all of the material made
`
`available for inspection shall be deemed “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.”
`
`After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing
`
`Party must determine which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order.
`
`Then, before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the appropriate legend
`
`(“CONFIDENTIAL,” “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY,” or “HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE”) to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion
`
`or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly
`
`identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins) and must specify,
`
`for each portion, the level of protection being asserted.
`
`(b) for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial proceedings, that the Designating
`
`Party identify on the record, before the close of the deposition, hearing, or other proceeding, or within
`
`21 days thereafter in a written notice to the other Party, all protected testimony and specify the level of
`
`protection being asserted. Only those portions of the testimony that are appropriately designated for
`
`protection within the 21 days shall be covered by the provisions of this Stipulated Protective Order.
`
`Alternatively, a Designating Party may specify, at the deposition, hearing, or other proceeding, or up to
`
`21 days afterwards in writing, that the entire transcript shall be treated as “CONFIDENTIAL” or
`
`“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.”
`
`During a deposition, when counsel deems that the answer to a question may result in the
`
`disclosure of Protected Material of that counsel’s client, counsel may request that any persons present
`
`who are not authorized pursuant to Section 7 leave the deposition during the confidential portion of the
`
`deposition. The use of a document as an exhibit at a deposition shall not in any way affect its
`
`designation as “CONFIDENTIAL,” “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY,” or
`
`“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY – SOURCE CODE.”
`
`Transcripts containing Protected Material shall have an obvious legend on the title page that the

`
`(including line numbers as appropriate) that have been designated as Protected Material and the level of
`
`protection being asserted by the Designating Party. The Designating Party shall inform the court reporter
`
`of these requirements. Any transcript that is prepared before the expiration of a 21-day period for
`
`designation shall be treated during that period as if it had been designated “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL
`
`– ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” in its entirety unless otherwise agreed. After the expiration of that
`
`period, the transcript shall be treated only as actually designated.
`
`(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for any other tangible
`
`items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the exterior of the container or containers
`
`in which the information or item is stored the legend “CONFIDENTIAL,” “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL
`
`– ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY,” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE.” If only a
`
`portion or portions of the information or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent
`
`practicable, shall identify the protected portion(s) and specify the level of protection being asserted.
`
`5.3
`
`Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent failure to designate
`
`qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the Designating Party’s right to secure
`
`protection under this Order for such material. Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving
`
`Party must make reasonable efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the
`
`provisions of this Order.
`
`6.
`
`CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
`
`6.1
`
`Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a designation of
`
`confidentiality at any time. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating Party’s confidentiality
`
`designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable, substantial unfairness, unnecessary economic burdens, or
`
`a significant disruption or delay of the litigation, a Party does not waive its right to challenge a
`
`confidentiality designation by electing not to mount a challenge promptly after the original designation
`
`is disclosed.
`
`6.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute resolution process by
`
`providing written notice of each designation it is challenging and describing the basis for each challenge.

`
`
`
`To avoid ambiguity as to whether a challenge has been made, the written notice must recite that the
`
`challenge to confidentiality is being made in accordance with this specific paragraph of the Protective
`
`Order. The parties shall attempt to resolve each challenge in good faith and must begin the process by
`
`conferring directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other forms of communication are not sufficient) within
`
`14 days of the date of service of notice. In conferring, the Challenging Party must explain the basis for
`
`its belief that the confidentiality designation was not proper and must give the Designating Party an
`
`opportunity to review the designated material, to reconsider the circumstances, and, if no change in
`
`designation is offered, to explain the basis for the chosen designation. A Challenging Party may proceed
`
`to the next stage of the challenge process only if it has engaged in this meet and confer process first or
`
`establishes that the Designating Party is unwilling to participate in the meet and confer process in a
`
`timely manner.
`
`6.3
`
`Judicial Intervention. If the Parties cannot resolve a challenge without court intervention,
`
`the Designating Party shall file and serve a motion to retain confidentiality under Civil Local Rule 7
`
`(and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, if applicable) within 21 days of the initial notice of
`
`challenge or within 14 days of the parties agreeing that the meet and confer process will not resolve their
`
`dispute, whichever is earlier. Each such motion must be accompanied by a competent declaration
`
`affirming that the movant has complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed in the preceding
`
`paragraph. Failure by the Designating Party to make such a motion including the required declaration
`
`within 21 days (or 14 days, if applicable) shall automatically waive the confidentiality designation for
`
`each challenged designation. In addition, the Challenging Party may file a motion challenging a
`
`confidentiality designation at any time if there is good cause for doing so, including a challenge to the
`
`designation of a deposition transcript or any portions thereof. Any motion brought pursuant to this
`
`provision must be accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that the movant has complied with
`
`the meet and confer requirements imposed by the preceding paragraph.
`
`The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the Designating Party.
`
`Frivolous challenges and those made for an improper purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary
`
`expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the

`
`
`
`Designating Party has waived the confidentiality designation by failing to file a motion to retain
`
`confidentiality as described above, all parties shall continue to afford the material in question the level
`
`of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the court rules on the
`
`challenge.
`
`7.
`
`ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
`
`7.1
`
`Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is disclosed or
`
`produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this case only for prosecuting,
`
`defending, or attempting to settle this litigation. Such Protected Material may be disclosed only to the
`
`categories of persons and under the conditions described in this Order. When the litigation has been
`
`terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 15 below (FINAL
`
`DISPOSITION).
`
`Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a location and in a
`
`secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons authorized under this Order.
`
`7.2
`
`Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless otherwise ordered by the
`
`court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a Receiving Party may disclose any information
`

`
`Procedures for Approving or Objecting to Disclosure of “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –
`
`ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” Information or
`
`Items to Designated House Counsel or Experts.
`
`(a)(1) Unless otherwise ordered by the court or agreed to in writing by the Designating Party,
`
`a Party that seeks to disclose to Designated House Counsel any information or item that has been
`
`designated “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” pursuant to paragraph 7.3(b)
`
`first must make a written request to the Designating Party that (1) sets forth the full name of the
`
`Designated House Counsel and the city and state of his or her residence and (2) describes the Designated
`
`House Counsel’s current and reasonably foreseeable future primary job duties and responsibilities in
`
`sufficient detail to determine if House Counsel is involved, or may become involved, in any competitive
`
`decision-making.
`
`(a)(2) Unless otherwise ordered by the court or agreed to in writing by the Designating Party,
`
`a Party that seeks to disclose to an Expert (as defined in this Order) any information or item that has
`
`been designated “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” pursuant to paragraph 7.3(c) first must make a written request to
`
`the Designating Party that (1) identifies the general categories of “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –
`
`ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” information that
`
`the Receiving Party seeks permission to disclose to the Expert, (2) sets forth the full name of the Expert
`
`and the city and state of his or her primary residence, (3) attaches a copy of the Expert’s current resume,
`
`(4) identifies the Expert’s current employer(s), (5) identifies each person or entity from whom the Expert
`
`has received compensation or funding for work in his or her areas of expertise or to whom the expert has
`
`provided professional services, including in connection with a litigation, at any time during the

`
`preceding five years,2 and (6) identifies (by name and number of the case, filing date, and location of
`court) any litigation in connection with which the Expert has offered expert testimony, including
`
`through a declaration, report, or testimony at a deposition or trial, during the preceding five years.
`
`(b) A Party that makes a request and provides the information specified in the preceding
`
`respective paragraphs may disclose the subject Protected Material to the identified Designated House
`
`Counsel or Expert unless, within 10 days of delivering the request, the Party receives a written objection
`
`from the Designating Party. Any such objection must set forth in detail the grounds on which it is based.
`
`(c) A Party that receives a timely written objection must meet and confer with the
`
`Designating Party (through direct voice to voice dialogue) to try to resolve the matter by agreement
`
`within seven days of the written objection. If no agreement is reached, the Party seeking to make the
`
`disclosure to Designated House Counsel or the Expert may file a motion as provided in Civil Local Rule
`
`7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, if applicable) seeking permission from the court to do
`
`so. Any such motion must describe the circumstances with specificity, set forth in detail the reasons why
`
`disclosure to Designated House Counsel or the Expert is reasonably necessary, assess the risk of harm
`
`that the disclosure would entail, and suggest any additional means that could be used to reduce that risk.
`
`In addition, any such motion must be accompanied by a competent declaration describing the parties’
`
`efforts to resolve the matter by agreement (i.e., the extent and the content of the meet and confer
`
`discussions) and setting forth the reasons advanced by the Designating Party for its refusal to approve
`
`the disclosure.
`
`In any such proceeding, the Party opposing disclosure to Designated House Counsel or the
`
`Expert shall bear the burden of proving that the risk of harm that the disclosure would entail (under the
`
`safeguards proposed) outweighs the Receiving Party’s need to disclose the Protected Material to its
`
`Designated House Counsel or Expert.
`
`
`2 If the Expert believes any of this information is subject to a confidentiality obligation to a third-party,
`then the Expert should provide whatever information the Expert believes can be disclosed without
`violating any confidentiality agreements, and the Party seeking to disclose to the Expert shall be
`available to meet and confer with the Designating Party regarding any such engagement.

`
`relating to systems and methods for protecting computers and computer networks from malicious

`
`application claiming priority to or otherwise related to the patents asserted in this action, before any
`
`foreign or domestic agency, including the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“the Patent
`

`
`reexamination or inter partes review). Furthermore, this section does not preclude an individual who
`
`receives access to “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY
