Zend Optimizer is a well-known piece of software, that is required to execute files encoded with Zend Guard. The second encrypts files written in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 to protect them from reverse engineering and unauthorized use, thus guarding copyrighted source code. When you wish to protect your custom-made script, for example, you're able to use Zend Guard and your program code won't be human readable, but you'll also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your site. Various pre-made script-driven applications, especially ones that are paid, also require Zend Optimizer to function properly since their core code is generally not free to change. Internet sites which use the tool are normally quicker since their program code is already optimized and precompiled.
