SAN JOSE, California, June 3 /PRNewswire/ --     Finjan Inc., a leader in secure web gateway products and the provider of
a unified web security solution for the enterprise market, announced today
that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) has terminated the
re-examination proceedings and issued a Notice of Intent to Issue Ex Parte
Re-examination Certificate (Notice) in the re-examination of its U.S. Patent
No. 6,092,194 for a system and method for protecting a computer and network
from hostile downloadables. The Notice indicates that all claims of this
security patent have been confirmed as being patentable by the PTO.

The Notice indicates that the PTO found that the art cited by the third
party requestor and other art provided through information disclosure
statements could not be combined to reject any of the 68 issued claims and
thus upheld the patentability of all of the originally issued claims that
were challenged in the re-examination proceeding. With the termination of the
re-examination of U.S. Patent 6,092,194, the issued claims have now been
subjected to two separate examinations, by independent groups of patent
examiners, and have been held to be patentable in both instances.

The 6,092,194 patent was held to be valid and infringed by Secure
Computing in early 2008 by the U.S. District Court in Delaware. "We are
pleased with the second approval of Finjan's gateway security patent by the
US Patent Office. The decision asserts Finjan's leadership in the web
security market. Having a broad portfolio of valid and enforceable patents,
Finjan will continue to protect its intellectual property worldwide." said
Yuval Ben-Itzhak, Chief Technology Officer at Finjan.
