Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits are not generally reported as cash and cash equivalents.

Business Description and Basis of Presentation [Abstract] | |||||||||||||
Business Description and Basis of Presentation | Note 1 - Business Description and Basis of Presentation VirnetX Holding Corporation, which we refer to as we, us and our, is engaged in the business of commercializing a portfolio of patents. We seek to license our technology, including GABRIEL Connection Technology™, to various original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, that use our technologies in the development and manufacturing of their own products within the IP-telephony, mobility, fixed-mobile convergence and unified communications markets. To date our revenue has been limited to an insignificant amount of software royalties pursuant to the terms of a single license agreement. The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. These unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, applicable for interim financial statements. Therefore, the disclosures do not include all the information necessary for complete financial statements in accordance with GAAP. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, or our Annual Report. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Our financial results have varied significantly from period to period. For this and other reasons, our operating results for any periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period. Reclassification of Gain on Settlement In June 2010, we received $200,000,000 from Microsoft Corporation related to a licensing agreement and originally classified it as revenue. Upon further analysis, we determined that we could not practically and objectively separate any settlement portion from the revenue element as discussed under the guidance of U.S. GAAP Accounting Standards Codification Topic 605: Revenue Recognition, or ASC Topic 605. As a result, we reclassified this amount in our 2010 financial statements to present it as a gain on settlement. This reclassification had no impact on our net income, financial position or cash flows for any period. Revenue Recognition We defer recognition of revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 605 until such time as all of the criteria below have been met:
We expect that some or all of our future licensing agreements will provide for payments to us over an extended period of time. For a licensing agreement with fixed royalty payments, we expect to recognize revenue as amounts become due. For a licensing agreement with variable royalty payments we expect to recognize royalty revenue at the time that the licensees' sales occur; however, because we expect that a licensee may report sales information to us on a delayed basis, we expect our revenue recognition criterion may also be met on a delayed basis. Complex revenue arrangements may require us to make significant judgments, assumptions and estimates about when substantial delivery of contract elements will occur, whether any significant ongoing obligations exist subsequent to contract execution, whether amounts due are collectible and the appropriate period in which the completion of the earning process occurs. If new information subsequently becomes known to us which causes us to make different judgments, assumptions or estimates regarding material contracts, our financial results may be materially affected. |

Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties | Note 3 -- Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties Our cash and cash equivalents are primarily maintained at two financial institutions in the United States. Deposits held with these financial institutions may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. The balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). During the period ended September 30, 2011, we had, at times, funds that were uninsured. The uninsured balance at September 30, 2011, was approximately $28,955,000. We do not believe that we are subject to any unusual financial risk beyond the normal risk associated with commercial banking relationships. We have not experienced any losses on our deposits of cash and cash equivalents. Implementation of FASB ASC 815-40-15 "Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity's Own Equity-Scope and Scope Exceptions" In June 2008, the FASB ratified guidance included in ASC 815-40-15, "Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity's Own Equity-Scope and Scope Exceptions," which provides that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity's own stock, including evaluating the instrument's contingent exercise and settlement provisions. ASC 815-40-15 describes the conditions under which an instrument or embedded feature is to be considered indexed to an entity's own stock for purposes of evaluating the instrument or embedded feature under FASB ASC Topic 815 "Derivatives and Hedging," which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts. Under the provisions of ASC 815-40-15, our outstanding Series I Warrants are not considered indexed to our stock, as a result of an anti-dilution protection provision in these warrants. The application of ASC 815-40-15, effective September 2009, resulted in our accounting for these warrants as derivative instruments, and they are recognized as liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Generally, while these warrants are outstanding, increases in our stock price will result in losses and decreases in our stock price will result in gains related to these warrants included in our net income (loss) for such periods. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is the price that would result from an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). Level 2 measurements utilize observable inputs in markets other than active markets. Our financial instruments are stated at amounts that equal, or are intended to approximate, fair value. When we approximate fair value, we utilize market data or assumptions that we believe market participants would use in pricing the financial instrument, including assumptions about risk and inputs to the valuation technique. We use valuation techniques, primarily the income and market approach that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs for recurring fair value measurements. Certificate of deposits: Fair value measured at face value plus accrued interest. Corporate bonds: Fair value measured at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded. Series I Warrants: Fair value measured by using a Binomial valuation model. As of September 30, 2011, the assumptions used to measure fair value of the liability embedded in our outstanding Series I Warrants included a warrant exercise price of $3.59 per share, a common share price of $14.99, a discount rate of 0.96%, and a volatility of 123%. The following table sets forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, our financial instrument assets as of September 30, 2011:
The following table sets forth, by level within the fair value hierarchy, our financial instrument liabilities as of September 30, 2011:
The following table sets forth a summary of changes in the fair value of our Level 3 financial instrument liability for the nine months ended September 30, 2011:

Patent Portfolio | Note 4 - Patent Portfolio As of September 30, 2011, we own nineteen (19) issued U.S. and twenty (20) issued foreign patents, in addition to several pending U.S. and foreign patent applications. Our issued U.S. and foreign patents expire at various times during the period from 2019 to 2024. Some of our issued patents and pending patent applications were acquired by our principal operating subsidiary, VirnetX, Inc., from Science Applications International Corporation, or SAIC, in 2006 and we are required to make payments to SAIC based on cash or certain other values generated from those patents. The amount of such payments depends upon the type of value generated, and certain categories are subject to maximums and other limitations. As of June 30, 2010, we met our maximum royalty payment requirement; however, SAIC is also entitled under certain circumstances to receive a portion of the proceeds paid to us for certain acquisitions of VirnetX or from the settlement of certain patent infringement claims of ours. |

Stock Based Compensation [Abstract] | |
Stock Based Compensation | Note 8 - Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. Total stock-based compensation expense was $3,104,186 and $2,473,349 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, and 2010, respectively. As of September 30, 2011, there was $10,244,370 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock-based compensation arrangements. This amount will be amortized as expense over the weighted average vesting period of approximately 6.67 years. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, 260,894 option shares were exercised, 435,000 were granted and none were forfeited or expired. The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the weighted average volatility of 123%, risk-free interest rate of 3.18%, expected life of 7 years, expected forfeitures of zero and expected dividends of zero. Expected life has been assumed to be the average of the vesting term and the contractual term of the option. Expected volatility was based upon historical data and other relevant factors, such as the share price volatility of publicly traded companies similar to us. We assumed forfeitures of zero because we have no history of forfeited options and believe that all outstanding unvested options at September 30, 2011, will vest. As of September 30, 2011, there were 3,866,597 vested and 1,137,901 unvested stock options outstanding. |

Litigation [Abstract] | |
Litigation | Note 10 - Litigation We have two intellectual property infringement lawsuits pending against multiple parties in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Tyler Division, pursuant to which we allege that these parties infringe on certain of our patents. We seek damages and injunctive relief in both complaints. On August 11, 2010, we initiated a lawsuit by filing a complaint against Aastra Technologies, Inc., Apple, Inc., Cisco Systems, Inc., and NEC Corporation. On January 12, 2011, we initiated a new lawsuit by filing a complaint against Siemens Enterprise Communications and Mitel Networks Corp. On April 12, 2011, we amended this complaint to add Avaya, Inc., as a defendant. We believe that Aastra, Apple, Cisco, NEC, Siemens, Mitel and Avaya infringe on certain of our patents, but obtaining and collecting a judgment against these parties may be difficult or impossible. Patent litigation is inherently risky and the outcome is uncertain. Aastra, Apple, Cisco, NEC, Siemens, Mitel and Avaya are all large, well-financed companies with substantially greater resources than us. We believe that these parties will devote a substantial amount of resources in an attempt to prove that either their products do not infringe our patents or that our patents are invalid and unenforceable. At this time, we cannot predict the final outcome of these litigation matters. |
