`

`
`
`I.
`
`RELIEF REQUESTED
`
`IPR2021-01492 of Patent No. 10,257,319
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.54, Patent Owner respectfully requests the
`
`following:
`
`First, Patent Owner respectfully requests that the Board grant this Motion to
`
`Seal Exhibits 2039, 2041-2044, and 2065, which contain highly confidential
`
`material.
`
`Second, Patent Owner respectfully requests that the Board grant this Motion
`
`to Seal the Patent Owner Response, which contains highly confidential material.
`
` Third, Patent Owner respectfully requests that the Board enter the Joint
`
`Protective Order (EX. 2068).
`
`Petitioners do not oppose this Motion.
`
`II. LEGAL STANDARD
`
`The Board may, for good cause, issue an order to protect a party or person
`
`from disclosing confidential information, including, but not limited to, “[r]equiring
`
`that a trade secret or other confidential research, development, or commercial
`
`information not be revealed or be revealed only in a specified way.” 37 C.F.R. §
`
`42.54(a)(7).
`
`A party may file a motion to seal where the motion to seal contains a
`
`proposed protective order and a certification that the moving party has in good
`
`faith conferred or attempted to confer with other affected parties. 37 C.F.R. §
`
`
`
`1
`
`

`

`
`
`IPR2021-01492 of Patent No. 10,257,319
`
`42.54(a). Generally, “a movant to seal must demonstrate adequately that (1) the
`
`information sought to be sealed is truly confidential, (2) a concrete harm would
`
`result upon public disclosure, (3) there exists a genuine need to rely in the trial on
`
`the specific information sought to be sealed, and (4), on balance, an interest in
`
`maintaining confidentiality outweighs the strong public interest in having an open
`
`record.” Corning Optical Commc’ns RF, LLC v. PPC Broadband, Inc., Case
`
`IPR2014-00736, Paper 38, at 2-3 (PTAB Apr. 14, 2015).
`
`III. SEALING OF EXHIBITS 2039, 2041-2044, AND 2065
`
`A. EXHIBIT 2039 (NETWORK DIAGRAM)
`
`Confidentiality: Exhibit 2039 is a highly sensitive, technical, network
`
`diagram of Patent Owner’s commercial services, which has not been publicly
`
`disclosed and Patent Owner has taken steps to guard against its disclosure in, for
`
`example, pending district court litigations. E.g., Bright Data Ltd. v. Teso LT, UAB,
`
`et al., No. 2:19-cv-395 (E.D. Tex.)(“Teso Litigation”), Bright Data Ltd. v.
`
`Code200, UAB, et al., No. 2:19-cv-396 (E.D. Tex.)(“Code200 Litigation”), Bright
`
`Data Ltd. v. Tefincom SA, No. 2:19-cv-414 (E.D. Tex.)(“Tefincom Litigation”).
`
`Exhibit 2039 consists entirely of material designated as “HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTAL – OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” such that redaction
`
`would not be practical. Exhibit 2039 requires filing entirely under seal and
`
`accordingly, no public version of Exhibit 2039 has been filed.
`
`
`
`2
`
`

`

`
`
`IPR2021-01492 of Patent No. 10,257,319
`
`Consequences of disclosure: Patent Owner would be significantly harmed by
`
`disclosure of Exhibit 2039 insofar as its competitors would be able to access
`
`sensitive technical details regarding Patent Owner’s commercial services.
`
`Importance: Exhibit 2039 is referenced in the expert declaration (Exhibit
`
`2065), the appendix to the expert declaration (Exhibit 2040), and the Patent Owner
`
`Response (“POR”). Patent Owner, and its expert, rely on Exhibit 2039 to provide
`
`context to Patent Owner’s source code (see discussion of Exhibits 2041-2044
`
`below) and to establish nexus as it relates, in particular, to secondary
`
`considerations of non-obviousness. Exhibit 2039 provides the best evidence of the
`
`technical details of Patent Owner’s commercial services and there are no public
`
`versions of the network diagram.
`
`Balance of interests: Patent Owner’s interest in protecting this highly
`
`sensitive information outweighs the Public’s interest in a complete file history. To
`
`serve the Public’s interest, public versions of the expert declaration and the POR
`
`are submitted concurrently. The harm to Patent Owner, if Exhibit 2039 were
`
`disclosed, and Patent Owner’s need to rely on Exhibit 2039, favor sealing Exhibit
`
`2039.
`
`Accordingly, good cause exists to seal Exhibit 2039.
`
`B. EXHIBITS 2041-2044 (SOURCE CODE FILES)
`
`
`
`3
`
`

`

`
`
`IPR2021-01492 of Patent No. 10,257,319
`
`Confidentiality: Exhibits 2041-2044 contain highly sensitive source code,
`
`which has not been publicly disclosed and Patent Owner has taken steps to guard
`
`against its disclosure in, for example, pending district court litigations. E.g., the
`
`Teso, Code200, and Tefincom Litigations. Exhibits 2041-2044 consist entirely of
`
`material designated as “HIGHLY CONFIDENTAL – OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’
`
`EYES ONLY” such that redaction would not be practical. Exhibits 2041-2044 are
`
`additionally designated as “SOURCE CODE” subject to the restrictions on
`
`printing, transport, and transmission in the Joint Protective Order (EX. 2068)
`
`discussed below. Exhibits 2041-2044 require filing entirely under seal and
`
`accordingly, no public versions of these exhibits have been filed.
`
`Consequences of disclosure: Patent Owner would be significantly harmed by
`
`disclosure of Exhibits 2041-2044 insofar as its competitors would be able to access
`
`sensitive technical details regarding Patent Owner’s source code.
`
`Importance: Exhibits 2041-2044 are referenced in the expert declaration
`
`(Exhibit 2065), the appendix to the expert declaration (Exhibit 2040), and the POR.
`
`Patent Owner, and its expert, rely on Exhibits 2041-2044 to show the operation of
`
`Patent Owner’s commercial services and to establish nexus as it relates, in
`
`particular, to secondary considerations of non-obviousness. Exhibits 2041-2044
`
`provide the best evidence of the technical details of Patent Owner’s commercial
`
`services and there are no public versions of the source code.
`
`
`
`4
`
`

`

`
`
`IPR2021-01492 of Patent No. 10,257,319
`
`Balance of interests: Patent Owner’s interest in protecting this highly
`
`sensitive information outweighs the Public’s interest in a complete file history. To
`
`serve the Public’s interest, public versions of the expert declaration and the POR
`
`are submitted concurrently. The harm to Patent Owner, if Exhibits 2041-2044 were
`
`disclosed, and Patent Owner’s need to rely on Exhibits 2041-2044, favor sealing
`
`Exhibits 2041-2044.
`
`Accordingly, good cause exists to seal Exhibit 2041-2044.
`
`C. EXHIBIT 2065 (EXPERT DECLARATION)
`
`Exhibit 2065 is the expert declaration, which references highly sensitive
`
`material in Exhibits 2039 and 2041-2044, discussed above. Additionally, Exhibit
`
`2065 references highly sensitive financial information, including monthly revenue
`
`of Patent Owner’s commercial services. Patent Owner has taken steps to guard
`
`against the disclosure of this highly sensitive material in, for example, pending
`
`district court litigations. E.g., the Teso, Code200, and Tefincom Litigations.
`
`Exhibit 2065 is designated as “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – OUTSIDE
`
`ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”.
`
`To serve the Public’s interest, a public version of the expert declaration is
`
`submitted concurrently. The public version redacts information that refers to or
`
`incorporates highly sensitive material. For the same reasons as discussed above,
`
`
`
`5
`
`

`

`
`
`IPR2021-01492 of Patent No. 10,257,319
`
`the harm to Patent Owner, if Exhibit 2065 were disclosed in its entirety, and Patent
`
`Owner’s need to rely on Exhibit 2065, favor sealing Exhibit 2065.
`
`IV. SEALING OF THE PATENT OWNER RESPONSE
`
`The POR references highly sensitive material in Exhibits 2039, 2041-2044,
`
`and 2065, discussed above. The POR is designated as “HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL – OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”. To serve the
`
`Public’s interest, a public version of the POR is submitted concurrently. The public
`
`version redacts information that refers to or incorporates highly sensitive material
`
`from Exhibits 2039, 2041-2044, and 2065. For the same reasons as discussed
`
`above, the harm to Patent Owner, if the POR were disclosed in its entirety, and
`
`Patent Owner’s need to submit the POR to defend the validity of the challenged
`
`patent, favor sealing the POR.
`
`V. ENTRY OF THE JOINT PROTECTIVE ORDER
`
`With this Motion to Seal, Patent Owner respectfully requests that the Board
`
`enter the Joint Protective Order (EX. 2068). Patent Owner respectfully submits that
`
`the Joint Protective Order (EX. 2068) is consistent with the integrity and efficient
`
`administration of the proceeding. See Consolidated Trial Practice Guide
`
`(November 2019)(“TPG”) at 115. The parties have agreed to the terms of the Joint
`
`Protective Order and Petitioners do not oppose this Motion.
`
`
`

`
`

`

`
`
`IPR2021-01492 of Patent No. 10,257,319
`
`The Joint Protective Order is based on the Board’s default protective order,
`
`with modifications as shown in the Redlined Version of the Joint Protective Order
`
`(EX. 2069). The Joint Protective Order deviates from the Board’s default
`
`protective order primarily by defining two levels of confidentiality:
`
`“CONFIDENTIAL” and “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – OUTSIDE
`
`ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”. The Joint Protective Order includes a second tier
`
`for “highly confidential” material that is for “outside attorneys’ eyes only” and not
`
`to be shared with the petitioners or their in-house counsel. See EX. 2068,
`
`paragraph 5. As outlined in paragraph 4 of the Joint Protective Order, “highly
`
`confidential” material may include unpublished technical information, trade secret
`
`information, financial information, or computer source code. These modifications
`
`are directed to preserving the highly confidential nature of Bright Data’s network
`
`diagram, financial information, and source code, which require a higher level of
`
`protection than what is offered in the default protective order.
`
`Due to the highly confidential nature of computer source code, the
`
`producing party is to clearly mark computer source code as “SOURCE CODE”
`
`subject to the additional provisions for “source code material” and “source code
`
`documents” outlined in paragraph 6 of the Joint Protective Order. The provisions
`
`in paragraph 6 of the Joint Protective Order relate to printing, transport, and
`
`
`
`7
`
`

`

`
`
`IPR2021-01492 of Patent No. 10,257,319
`
`transmission of “source code material” and “source code documents” that include
`
`excerpts of source code material.
`
`Patent Owner certifies that it has in good faith conferred with
`
`Petitioners and the parties have no disputes regarding the Joint Protective
`
`Order.
`
`Patent Owner respectfully submits that the proposed modifications are
`
`appropriate for at least four reasons:
`
`First, the parties agree to the proposed modifications, which are consistent
`
`with the integrity and efficient administration of the proceeding. “The Board will
`
`consider changes agreed to by the parties, and generally will accept such proposed
`
`changes if they are consistent with the integrity and efficient administration of the
`
`proceedings.” TPG at 115.
`
`Second, this highly sensitive information has been previously produced in
`
`pending district court litigations, e.g., the Teso, Code200, and Tefincom
`
`Litigations, and was previously marked with confidentiality designations based on
`
`the District Court Protective Order in each of those cases. Those protections should
`
`be maintained in this proceeding.
`
`Third, Patent Owner would be significantly harmed if this highly sensitive
`
`material were disclosed to the petitioners or in-house counsel to the petitioners,
`
`given the business nature of the confidential information. Petitioners and Patent
`
`
`
`8
`
`

`

`
`
`IPR2021-01492 of Patent No. 10,257,319
`
`Owner are competitors in the same market and are involved in pending district
`
`court litigations. E.g., the Teso and Code200 Litigations.
`
`Fourth, the Board has previously granted modified protective orders with a
`
`“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” tier.
`
`See, e.g., Varian Medical Systems, Inc., et al. v. Best Medical International, Inc.,
`
`IPR2020-00071, Paper 43 at 4-5 (PTAB Oct. 23, 2020)(granting proposed
`
`modifications in Paper 32); see also, e.g., Echelon Fitness Multimedia, LLC v.
`
`Peloton Interactive, Inc., IPR2020-01541, Paper 56 at 87-88 (PTAB March 2,
`
`2022)(public version of Paper 54; granting proposed modifications in Paper 31).
`
`Thus, Patent Owner respectfully requests that the Board enter the Joint
`
`Protective Order (EX. 2068) in this proceeding. Furthermore, Patent Owner
`
`understands that the terms of a protective order take effect upon the filing of a
`
`Motion to Seal by a party, and remain in place until lifted or modified by the
`
`Board. See TPG at 107.
