“We are thrilled to welcome Gary onto the Finjan Board and feel privileged to be the first public company board he is committing to after his successful Cisco career as President and COO,” said Daniel Chinn, Finjan–s Chairman. “Time and time again Gary has demonstrated his expertise in influencing companies towards growth and increased shareholder value.
