`
`
`I.
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`Plaintiff Finjan LLC (“Finjan”), having reviewed and complied with Civil Local Rule 79-5,
`
`hereby moves the Court for permission to file under seal the following documents:
`
`Document
`Defendant Qualys Inc.’s Oct. 1, 2020
`Supplemental Objections and Responses to
`Finjan’s First Set of Interrogatories
`(Nos. 1-6)
`Defendant Qualys Inc.’s Oct. 1, 2020
`Supplemental Objections and Responses to
`Finjan, Inc.’s Third Set of Interrogatories
`(Nos. 12-19)
`
`
`Portion to seal Reason for sealing
`Entirety
`Defendant Qualys Inc.
`designated the document
`“CONFIDENTIAL” under the
`Protective Order.
`Defendant Qualys Inc.
`designated the document
`“CONFIDENTIAL” under the
`Protective Order.
`
`Entirety
`
`Filed concurrently herewith and pursuant to Civ. L.R. 79-5(c) are confidential versions of
`
`the above referenced documents.
`
`II.
`
`ARGUMENT
`
`A.
`
`Legal Standard
`
`Under Fed. Rule Civ. P. 26(c)(1)(G), the Court may, in its discretion and for good cause,
`
`issue an order “requiring that a trade secret or other confidential research, development, or
`
`commercial information not be revealed or be revealed only in a specified way.” Similarly, in this
`
`Circuit, the Court may seal documents and information in the case of a dispositive motion if there
`
`are “compelling reasons” to do so, and where “good cause” exists in the case of non-dispositive
`
`motions. Ctr. For Auto Safety v. Chrysler Grp., LLC, 809 F.3d 1092, 1095-1100 (9th Cir. 2016).
`
`A motion is considered “non-dispositive” when the motion is no more than “tangentially related” to
`
`the underlying cause of action. Id. at 1099. The “good cause” standard requires a “particularized
`
`showing” that “specific prejudice or harm will result” if the information is disclosed. Phillips ex
`
`rel. Estates of Byrd v. Gen Motors Corp.¸ 307 F.3d 1206, 1210-11 (9th Cir. 2002) (internal quotation
`
`marks omitted). “Broad allegations of harm, unsubstantiated by specific examples of articulated
`
`reasoning” will not suffice. Beckman Indus., Inc. v. Int’l Ins. Co., 966 F.2d 476 (9th Cir. 1992). A
`
`request to seal material “must be narrowly tailored to seek sealing only of sealable material.” L.R.
`
`79-5(b).

`
`
`
`
`
`B.
`
`Finjan’s Administrative Motion to Seal is Supported by Good Cause and is
`
`Narrowly Tailored
`
`Good cause exists to file the documents in question under seal, as described in the
`
`Declaration of Jason W. Wolff (“Wolff Decl.”) accompanying this motion to seal. Finjan’s request
`
`is narrowly tailored to seal only information that has been designated as confidential pursuant to the
`
`protective order entered in this case. For the foregoing reasons, Finjan respectfully requests that the
`
`Court grant its request that the documents described above remain under seal.
