EAST PALO ALTO, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 12/30/15 -- Finjan Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: FNJN), a cybersecurity company, today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has granted its subsidiary, Finjan, Inc., with U.S. Patent No. 9,219,755 (the '755 Patent) covering malicious mobile code runtime monitoring system and methods. The Company also announced that its trial against Proofpoint, Inc., Case No. 3:13-cv-05808-HSG, that was filed on December 16, 2013, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California has been rescheduled to begin on June 13, 2016.

"The issuance of the '755 Patent marks our 25th US patent and will complement our portfolio of more than 40 patents and pending applications worldwide," said Finjan's President & CEO, Phil Hartstein. "With Finjan's migration into the world of security for mobile devices, it's quite satisfying to see our innovations, which began more than 20 years ago, continue to be recognized by the US Patent Office as 'State of the Art.'"

"With regard to the Proofpoint trial schedule, the successful protection of our world-class patent portfolio remains paramount as we build new technologies, enter new markets, and preserve the rights of existing licensees to the Finjan portfolio," continued Hartstein. "The Court's recent orders in the Proofpoint case have further clarified and bolstered our patent claims demonstrating our commitment to defend our valuable patent portfolio through licensing and enforcement activities consistent with our Best Practices."

Finjan also has pending infringement lawsuits against FireEye, Inc., Sophos, Inc., Symantec Corporation, Palo Alto Networks, Inc., and Blue Coat Systems, Inc. relating to, collectively, more than 20 patents in the Finjan portfolio.
