`
`FINJAN, INC.,
`
`Plaintiff,
`
`v.
`
`QUALYS INC.,
`
`Case No. 18-cv-07229-YGR (TSH)
`
`
`ORDER REGARDING MOTION TO
`SEAL
`
`Re: Dkt. No. 99
`
`
`
`
`
`Defendant.
`
`
`
`The parties have filed a joint motion to seal at ECF No. 99. As to the joint discovery letter
`
`brief, the first redaction does not satisfy the standards for sealing, but the second one does.
`
`Accordingly, the motion to seal is granted in part and denied in part as to that document.
`
`As for Finjan Exhibit 5, there is confidential information in it, but there is also a lot of non-
`
`confidential information in it, such as basic background about Qualys and a fair amount of
`
`marketing language. Sealing the whole document violates Civil Local Rule 79-5(d)(1)(B). The
`
`same is true of Finjan Exhibit 8 (which is called Exhibit 7 in the motion). Likewise, Qualys’s
`
`Exhibit A contains lots of nonconfidential narrative and legal argument; there is no reason to seal
`
`the whole thing. As to these three documents, the motion to seal is denied without prejudice to the
`
`parties’ proposing narrowly tailored redactions, which they shall file within seven days.
`
`
`
`IT IS SO ORDERED.
