SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract]  
Fair value of financial instruments
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.
Derivative financial instruments
Derivative financial instruments
The Company's derivatives are not designated as hedging accounting instruments under ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging". Those derivatives consist primarily of forward and options contracts the Company uses to hedge the Company's exposures to currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The Company recognized derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities and measures those instruments at fair value. Since the derivative instruments that the Company holds do not meet the definition of hedging instruments under ASC 815, the Company recognizes changes in the fair values in its statement of income in financial income, net, in the same period as the re-measurement gain and loss of the related foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities.
The fair value of the forward and options contracts as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012 were recorded as an asset of $204 and liability of $138, respectively.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Impact of recently issued accounting standards:
In May 2011, the FASB issued changes to the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. The new guidance requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. The new guidance does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income. In December 2011, the FASB deferred the requirement that companies present reclassification adjustments for each component of accumulated other comprehensive income in both net income and other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements. The new reporting requirement is effective for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the accounting pronouncement as of July 1, 2012, and the effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements was to present activity impacting net income and other comprehensive loss in two consecutive statements.
