`
`PATENT OWNER’S MOTION FOR OBSERVATION
`
`
`1 Case IPR2016-00919 has been joined with this proceeding.
`
`
`
`

`
`Patent Owner’s Motion for Observations on Testimony of Dr. Rubin
`IPR2015-01979 (U.S. Patent No. 8,141,154)
`
`
`Patent Owner Finjan, Inc. submits the following observations of the
`
`November 14, 2016 cross-examination of Aviel Rubin (Ex. 2035):
`
`Evidence that Should Have Been Cited in Petition Rather than the Reply
`
`1. In Exhibit 2035, pg. 10, line 10- pg. 11, line 20, the witness testified:
`
`Q You mentioned that you cited Exhibit Number 1044 Nebenzahl
`
`and Wool, correct?
`
`A Yes.
`
`Q When were you first aware of this document?
`
`A Probably in late 2003, 2004.
`
`Q How did you become aware of the Nebenzahl document?
`
`A So I worked actively as a researcher in this field and actually
`
`Avishai Wool, the second officer is someone I know very well. He was at
`
`the labs when I was at AT&T labs. He was at Bell Labs. And in fact he was
`
`my host for my last sabbatical at Tel Aviv University. So his research is
`
`research that I followed closely. And when he wrote this paper I'm sure that
`
`I was aware of it, along with a lot of other papers in the field at the time.
`
`Q The Nebenzahl document, it's not cited in your previous
`
`declaration, correct?
`
`A That's right.

`
`

`
`Patent Owner’s Motion for Observations on Testimony of Dr. Rubin
`IPR2015-01979 (U.S. Patent No. 8,141,154)
`
`Q You could have cited the Nebenzahl document in your previous
`
`
`
`declaration, correct?
`
`A I suppose I could cite any document that I want.
`
`(Deposition Exhibit 2 was marked for purposes of identification.)
`
`Q You've been handed an exhibit marked as Exhibit Number 2.
`
`Exhibit Number 2 is entitled, "Install-Time Vaccination of Windows
`
`Executables to Defend Against Stack Smashing Attacks." By Nebenzahl
`
`and Wool. And at the bottom it's marked as Exhibit 1044. Is this the
`
`Nebenzahl document we have been referring to?
`
`A Yes.
`
`This testimony is relevant because Nebenzal (Ex. 1044) is an improper reference
`
`that Petitioner newly introduced after Patent Owner had already submitted its
`
`Patent Owner Response. Dr. Rubin testified that he was aware of this reference
`
`since 2003 and did not cite this in his original declaration even though he could
`
`have included it in his original declaration.
`
`Offers No Opinion on What is or Isn’t an Application
`
`2. In Exhibit 2035, pg. 18, line 18-pg. 19, line 4, the witness testified:
`
`Q So in your opinion an application is not any code that can be run,
`
`correct?
`
`A I don't think I said that.

`
`

`
`Patent Owner’s Motion for Observations on Testimony of Dr. Rubin
`IPR2015-01979 (U.S. Patent No. 8,141,154)
`
`
` Q Is that your opinion though?
`
` A Is what?
`
` Q Is it your opinion that an application is not any code that can be
`
`run?
`
`A I don't offer opinion about what is or isn't an application in my
`
`declaration.
`
`This testimony is relevant because Petitioner insists that Khazan instruments
`
`application. But after repeatedly asked for his understanding of what an
`
`application is, Dr. Rubin concedes that his declaration fails to offer an opinion of
`
`what is or isn’t an application.
`
`Disassembly of a Binary Does not Instrument an Application
`
`3. In Exhibit 2035, pg. 36, lines 13-23, the witness testified:
`
` Q What is the IDA Pro Disassembler for?
`
`A It's to disassemble binaries.
`
`Q Is it your opinion that disassembling a binary is the same as
`
`instrumenting applications?
`
`A No.
`
`Q Can you explain the difference?
`
`A Disassembling binaries is converting binaries into assembly
`
`language. And instrumenting applications is adding code to an application
`

`
`

`
`Patent Owner’s Motion for Observations on Testimony of Dr. Rubin
`IPR2015-01979 (U.S. Patent No. 8,141,154)
`
`
`in order to be able to do some kind of a check or operation on it before you
`
`run the original code.
`
`This testimony is relevant because Petitioner newly argues that the IDA Pro
`
`Disassembler teaches a POSITA how to instrument an application. But Dr. Rubin
`
`concedes that the purpose of the IDA Pro Disassembler is to disassembler binaries
`
`not instrument applications. This testimony is also relevant because Dr. Rubin
`
`goes on to explain why these two functionalities are different, including explaining
`
`that disassembling binaries is converting binaries into assembly language while
`
`instrumenting application is adding code to an application.
`
`Respectfully submitted,
