`
`ORCA SECURITY LTD.,
`
`Plaintiff and Counter-Defendant
`
`v.
`
`WIZ, INC.,
`
`Defendant and Counter-Plaintiff.
`
`MOTION FOR REDACTION OF MEMORANDUM ORDER
`
`Pursuant to the Court’s Memorandum Order (D.I. 169), Wiz, Inc. (“Wiz”) respectfully
`
`moves to redact 29 words of the Memorandum Order. Orca Security Ltd. (“Orca”) has stated that
`
`Orca takes no position on this motion.
`
`Although there is a presumptive right of public access to judicial proceedings (In re
`
`Avandia Mktg., Sales Practices & Prods. Liab. Litig., 924 F.3d 662, 672 (3d Cir. 2019)), that right
`
`is not absolute. Id. A party seeking to seal part of the judicial record bears the burden of showing
`
`“that the material is the kind of information that courts will protect and that disclosure will work a
`
`clearly defined and serious injury to the party seeking closure.” Id. (citation omitted).
`
`Good cause must be demonstrated to justify redacting an order. Mosaid Techs. Inc. v. LSI
`
`Corp., 878 F. Supp. 2d 503, 507 (D. Del. 2012). In determining whether good cause exists, “courts
`
`weigh the harm of disclosing information against the importance of disclosure to the public.” Id.
`
`at 508 (citing Pansy v. Borough of Stroudsburg, 23 F.3d 772, 787 (3d Cir. 1994)). Courts have
`
`found good cause to redact “business information that might harm a litigant’s competitive
`
`standing.” Littlejohn v. BIC Corp., 851 F.2d 673, 678 (3d Cir. 1988). “[I]f a case involves private

`
`
`
`litigants, and concerns matters of little legitimate public interest, that should be a factor weighing
`
`in favor of granting or maintaining an order of confidentiality.” Pansy, 23 F.3d at 788.
`
`Consistent with those standards, Wiz respectfully requests that the Court approve the
`
`limited redactions reflected in Exhibits A and B. Exhibit A contains as highlighted the information
`
`Wiz proposes to be redacted, and Exhibit B is the proposed redacted version that Wiz proposes to
`
`be filed on the docket. Wiz only seeks to redact 29 words in the Court’s 10-page Memorandum
`
`Order.
`
`Wiz proposes that references to the
`
`
`
`
`
` Declaration
`
`of Nir Dagan (“Dagan Decl.”), ¶ 2; D.I. 155-10 at ¶¶ 3, 16; see also D.I. 157 at 2-3.
`
` Dagan Decl., ¶ 3; D.I. 155-10, ¶ 12. Wiz therefore requests that
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` be redacted from the Memorandum Order, as reflected
`
`in Exhibits A and B. See D.I. 157 at 2-3.
`
`Additionally, Wiz’s proposed redactions are very narrowly tailored and consist of only
`
`references
`
` Dagan Decl., ¶ 2.
`
`Finally, the public has little legitimate interest in this particularly confidential Wiz
`
`information, but the potential harm to Wiz, if the information is disclosed, is severe. Dagan Decl.,
`
`¶¶ 2, 3. Wiz therefore has shown good cause for the limited redactions.

`
`direct the Clerk of the Court to docket the redacted version of the Order attached hereto as Exhibit
`
`B.
