BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract]  
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
a.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
 
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments except as otherwise discussed).
 
 
For further information, reference is made to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013.
 
 
Operating results for the three and six months periods ended December 31, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2014.
 
Significant Accounting Policies
 
b.
Significant Accounting Policies
 
The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are identical to those applied in the preparation of the latest annual financial statements.
 
Use of estimates
 
c.
Use of estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Fair value of financial instruments
 
d.
Fair value of financial instruments
 
 
The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, available-for-sale marketable securities, short-term deposits, trade payable and other accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value because of their generally short term maturities.
 
 
The Company accounts for certain assets and liabilities at fair value under ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures". Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.
 
As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability.
 
As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC 820 establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
 
Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
 
Level 2 - Includes other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions, or other inputs that are observable (model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable), or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data; and
 
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.
 
The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company categorized each of its fair value measurements in one of these three levels of hierarchy.

Based on the fair value hierarchy, the Company classifies its marketable securities within Level 1 or Level 2. This is because the Company values its marketable securities using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs. The Company classifies its foreign currency derivative instruments primarily within Level 2 as the valuation inputs are based on quoted prices and market observable data of similar instruments.
 
Derivative financial instruments
 
e.
Derivative financial instruments
 
The Company uses forward contracts and options strategies ("derivative instruments") primarily to manage exposure to foreign currency. The Company accounts for derivatives and hedging based on ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging". ASC 815 requires the Company to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of derivative instruments depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and further, on the type of hedging relationship. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, the Company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge, or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. If the derivative instruments meet the definition of a hedge and are so designated, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of such derivatives will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings, or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in the statement of operations. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value is recognized in the statement of operations.
 
Cash Flow Hedges .   The Company entered into forward contracts to hedge against the risk of overall changes in future cash flow from payments of payroll and related expenses denominated in Israeli Shekels. The gain or loss on the effective portion of a cash flow hedge is initially reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into operating expenses in the same period or periods in which the payroll and related expenses are recognized, or reclassified into "financial income, net" if the hedged transaction becomes probable of not occurring. Any gain or loss after a hedge is no longer designated, because it is no longer probable of occurring or it is related to an ineffective portion of a cash flow hedge is recognized in the statement of operations immediately. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had forward contracts in place to hedge future payroll and related expenses in Israeli Shekels of approximately $2,000, and the net unrealized gain on the effective portion of these cash flow hedges was $36. The forward contracts on the Company's future Israeli Shekels payroll and related expenses will settle by May 2014. On June 30, 2013, the Company did not have contracts designated and qualifies as cash flow hedge.
 
Other Derivatives. Other derivatives that are non-designated consist primarily of options strategies to minimize the risk associated with the foreign exchange effects of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in Israeli Shekels. The net gains (losses) recognized in "financial income, net" during the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, were ($50), ($57), $189 and $342, respectively.
