`
`
`
`content delivered over the Internet. Finjan has been awarded, and continues to prosecute, numerous
`
`patents covering innovations in the United States and around the world resulting directly from Finjan’s
`
`more than decades-long research and development efforts, supported by a dozen inventors, and over
`
`$65 million in R&D investments.
`
`8.
`
`Finjan built and sold software, including application program interfaces (APIs), and
`
`appliances for network security using these patented technologies. These products and related
`
`customers continue to be supported by Finjan’s licensing partners. At its height, Finjan employed
`
`nearly 150 employees around the world building and selling security products and operating the
`
`Malicious Code Research Center through which it frequently published research regarding network
`
`security and current threats on the Internet. Finjan’s pioneering approach to online security drew
`
`equity investments from two major software and technology companies, the first in 2005, followed by
`
`the second in 2006. Finjan generated millions of dollars in product sales and related services and
`
`support revenues through 2009 when it spun off certain hardware and technology assets in a merger.
`
`Pursuant to this merger, Finjan was bound to a non-compete and confidentiality agreement, under
`
`which it could not make or sell a competing product or disclose the existence of the non-compete
`
`clause. Finjan became a publicly traded company in June 2013, capitalized with $30 million. After
`
`Finjan’s obligations under the non-compete and confidentiality agreement expired in March 2015,
`
`Finjan re-entered the development and production sector of secure mobile products for the consumer
`
`market.
`
`9.
`
`Finjan and Cisco’s relationship dates back over two decades. In the late 1990’s, the
`
`parties entered into an original equipment manufacturer agreement that allowed Cisco to incorporate
`
`Finjan’s technology into Cisco’s product. Seeing the value of Finjan’s technology, Cisco made
`
`multiple substantial financial investments in Finjan beginning as early as 2004. At the time of these
`
`investments, Cisco knew of Finjan’s patent portfolio and patented technology. Cisco continued to gain
`
`knowledge about Finjan and its patents and patented technology after investing in Finjan. For
`
`example, pursuant to the parties’ agreement, Cisco had an observer attend Finjan’s board of director
`
`meetings. Cisco also attended presentations by Finjan in which Finjan discussed its issued and

`
`pending patents and its patented technology. As of June 2013, when Finjan became a publicly traded
`
`company, Cisco was the beneficial owner of shares of Finjan, and currently maintains ownership of
`
`shares of Finjan. Throughout the years Cisco and Finjan maintained an amicable relationship and
`
`consistently collaborated together on cybersecurity. However, in the second half of 2013, Cisco
`
`acquired the company Sourcefire, Inc. (“SourceFire”) and integrated that company’s appliances and
`
`technology into Cisco’s own product lines. Finjan patents cover technology acquired in the SourceFire
`
`deal, along with other unlicensed technologies that Cisco has implemented over the years.
`

`
`On November 28, 2000, U.S. Patent No. 6,154,844 (“the ‘844 Patent”), titled SYSTEM
`
`AND METHOD FOR ATTACHING A DOWNLOADABLE SECURITY PROFILE TO A
`
`DOWNLOADABLE, was issued to Shlomo Touboul and Nachshon Gal. A true and correct copy of
`
`the ‘844 Patent is attached to this Complaint as Exhibit 1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
`
`11.
`
`All rights, title, and interest in the ‘844 Patent have been assigned to Finjan, who is the
`
`sole owner of the ‘844 Patent. Finjan has been the sole owner of the ‘844 Patent since its issuance.
`
`12.
`
`The ‘844 Patent is generally directed towards computer networks, and more
`
`particularly, provides a system that protects devices connected to the Internet from undesirable
`
`operations from web-based content. One of the ways this is accomplished is by linking a security
`
`profile to such web-based content to facilitate the protection of computers and networks from
`
`malicious web-based content.
`
`13.
`
`On October 12, 2004, U.S. Patent No. 6,804,780 (“the ‘780 Patent”), titled SYSTEM
`
`AND METHOD FOR PROTECTING A COMPUTER AND A NETWORK FROM HOSTILE
`
`DOWNLOADABLES, was issued to Shlomo Touboul. A true and correct copy of the ‘780 Patent is
`
`attached to this Complaint as Exhibit 2 and is incorporated by reference herein.
`
`14.
`
`All rights, title, and interest in the ‘780 Patent have been assigned to Finjan, who is the
`
`sole owner of the ‘780 Patent. Finjan has been the sole owner of the ‘780 Patent since its issuance.
`
`15.
`
`The ‘780 Patent is generally directed towards methods and systems for generating a
`
`Downloadable ID. By generating an identification for each examined Downloadable, the system may
