`
`responses to Defendant Sophos Inc.’s (“Sophos” or “Defendant”) First Set of Interrogatories
`
`(“Interrogatories”). Finjan makes these supplemental objections and responses herein (collectively
`
`“Responses”) based solely on its current knowledge, understanding, and belief as to the facts and
`
`information reasonably available to it as of the date of the Responses.
`
`Additional discovery and investigation may lead to additions to, changes in, or modifications of
`
`these Responses. The Responses, therefore, are given without prejudice to Finjan’s right to further
`
`supplement these Responses pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(e), or to provide subsequently discovered
`
`information and to introduce such subsequently discovered information at the time of any trial or
`
`proceeding in this action.
`
`OBJECTIONS

`
`and Instructions set forth in its Objections and Responses to Sophos’ First Set of Interrogatories,
`
`served on August 11, 2014.
`

`
`Finjan objects to each and every Interrogatory, Definition, and Instruction to the extent
`
`that they are premature, as they seek documents that are set to be disclosed on scheduled dates directed
`
`by the Court (e.g., pursuant to the Court’s Minute Entry at Dkt. No. 36) or the Northern District of
`
`California Patent Local Rules, or by stipulation between the parties.

`
`that they impose obligations inconsistent with the ESI order or Protective Order entered on July 3,

`
`valid. Finjan objects to this Interrogatory to the extent it is premature, as discovery has just
`

`
`Northern District of California Patent Local Rules and the schedule in this action. Finjan objects to
`
`this Interrogatory as Sophos has not served its invalidity contentions. Finjan objects to this
`
`Interrogatory to the extent it is compound because it is comprised of multiple discrete subparts. Finjan
`
`objects to this Interrogatory to the extent it calls for legal conclusions. Finjan objects to this
`
`Interrogatory to the extent it seeks information protected by the attorney-client privilege, the work
`
`product doctrine, or any other applicable law, privilege, doctrine, or immunity. Finjan objects to this

`
`

`
`
`
`to this Interrogatory as Sophos has not served its invalidity contentions. Finjan objects to this
`
`Interrogatory to the extent it is compound because it is comprised of multiple discrete subparts. Finjan
`
`objects to this Interrogatory to the extent it calls for legal conclusions. Finjan objects to this
`
`Interrogatory to the extent it seeks information protected by the attorney-client privilege, the work
`
`product doctrine, or any other applicable law, privilege, doctrine, or immunity. Finjan also objects to
`
`this Interrogatory to the extent it seeks confidential, business, financial, proprietary or sensitive
`
`information or trade secrets of third parties, which is subject to pre-existing protective order(s) and/or
`
`confidentiality agreements. Finjan objects to this Request to the extent it seeks information within
`
`Sophos’s possession, custody, or control, or to the extent it seeks information in the public domain.
`
`Finjan objects to this Interrogatory as vague, ambiguous, unduly burdensome and overbroad.
`
`
`
`Subject to and without waiving the foregoing general and specific objections, Finjan responds
`
`as follows:
`
`
`
`At the very least, the Patents-in-Suit are novel and non-obvious due to the industry praise, long-
`
`felt need, licensing, copying by competitors, and commercial success of the technology covered by
`
`these patents. For example:
`
`
`
`Industry Praise:
`
`Finjan’s Vital Security Appliance Series has been praised by the International Data
`
`Corporation, who hailed Finjan as the inventor of proactive content behavior inspection. Finjan was
`
`the finalist in two of SC Magazine’s 2007 Awards, Best Security Company and Best Security Solution
`
`for Government – Finjan Vital Security Web Appliance. Finjan was the winner of the Winner of
`
`Excellence in Anti-Malware and Winner of Excellence in Gateways in the Info Security Products
`
`Guide—Product Excellence Awards 2007. SC Magazine rated the Finjan Vital Security NG-6100 five
`
`out of five stars. PC Pro stated that the Finjan Vital Security NG-1100 appliance “is one of the best

`
`Annual Excellence Award in the Network Datastream Protection category. Named in the top ten Most
`
`Interesting Products exhibited at RSA 2009 by eWEEK. CRN.com review praised Finjan’s Vital
`
`Security Web appliance because “Finjan’s Vital Security can make a difference in organizations
`
`concerned about security and compliance.” SC Magazine gave the Finjan Vital Security NG-8000 five
`
`out of five starts. SC Magazine commented that the Finjan Vital Security Web Appliance Series was
`
`“[j]ust about the most comprehensive product of its kind [they have] tested.” An article by
`
`InformationWeek described the Finjan Vital Security 6100 appliance as taking “signature based
`
`protection to the next level by actually executing the code of the site you’re visiting in a sandbox in
`
`real time.”
`
`Licensing:
`
`In July 2005, Microsoft Corporation obtained a license to Finjan’s computer security patents.
`
`Microsoft obtained a license to Finjan’s technology in order to advance their security innovation just
`
`after entering the computer security market. At the time Microsoft obtained a license to Finjan’s
`
`patents Microsoft had nearly no market share in the computer security space and was heading to
`
`compete against large well-established companies. Microsoft saw the value of licensing Finjan’s
`
`technology to help give them a boost and now Microsoft is one of the more dominant players with
`
`Microsoft Security Essentials product. A Microsoft spokesperson stated that “Finjan has done some
`
`interesting product innovation in the security space.”
`
`In November 2009, Finjan licensed its patents to M86 Security. In March 2012, Finjan
`
`licensed its patents to Trustwave Holdings, Inc. In July 2012, Finjan licensed its patents to Webroot
`
`Inc. In November 2012, McAfee, Inc./Intel Corporation (“Intel”) took a license to Finjan’s patent

`FINJAN’S FIRST SUPP. RESPONSES TO SOPHOS’S
`Case No.: 14-cv-01197-WHO
`FIRST SET OF INTERROGATORIES (Nos. 1-5, 7 and 8)
`
`Patent Owner Finjan, Inc. - Ex. 2006, p. 11
`
`

`
`HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY
`
`Copying by Competitors:
`
`On June 6, 2005 Finjan filed a complaint of infringement against Secure Computing
`
`Corporation (“Secure Computing”) asserting that Secure Computing infringed the ‘780 and ‘822
`
`Patents. That case proceeded to trial, where the jury found that all of the asserted Finjan patents were
`
`valid in light of the asserted prior art. Secure Computing was also found to infringe the ‘780 and ‘822
`
`Patents, and awarded Finjan damages on Secure Computing revenue of $65.75 million. On August 18,
`
`2009, the District Court in the Secure Computing case enhanced Finjan’s jury verdict. The court based
`
`its reasoning for enhancing damages partly on a finding that “Finjan’s patents were copied
`
`deliberately” and “Finjan patents represented a technology that [Secure] wished to compete with and
`
`emulate in the market.” Secure Computing even named this copying in their code and called it “Finjan
`
`Buster” or “Finjan Killer.” Finjan was also awarded a permanent injunction against Secure Computing
`
`for infringing Finjan’s ‘780 and ‘822 Patents. In addition, the patented technology of the Patents-in-
`
`Suit has been copied by Sophos and other companies.
`
`Commercial Success:
`
`Based on information presently available to Finjan, Finjan’s Vital Security 7.0 product in or
`
`about 2004 incorporated technology of claim 1, claim 9, claim 17, and claim 18 of the ‘780 Patent, and
`
`claim 1, claim 15, claim 22, and claim 43 of the ‘844 Patent. IDC reported that Finjan had revenues of
`
`$6.5 million in 2001, $6.1 million in 2002, $9.3 million in 2003, $12.9 million in 2004, $16.4 million
`
`in 2005, and $19.7 million in 2006.

`Identify by product name and internal Finjan name or designation Each product offered for sale
`
`or sold by or under license from Finjan which Finjan contends practices any alleged invention
`

`
`FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO. 5:
`
`
`
`Finjan objects to this Interrogatory as vague, ambiguous, overbroad, and unduly burdensome,
`
`including the term “Each.” Finjan objects to this Interrogatory to the extent it is compound because it
`
`is comprised of multiple discrete subparts. Finjan objects to this Interrogatory to the extent it calls for
`
`legal conclusions. Finjan objects to this Interrogatory to the extent it seeks information protected by
`
`the attorney-client privilege, the work product doctrine, or any other applicable law, privilege,
`
`doctrine, or immunity. Finjan also objects to this Interrogatory to the extent it seeks confidential,
`
`business, financial, proprietary or sensitive information or trade secrets of third parties, which is
`
