Zend Optimizer is a popular software, that's required to run files protected with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encrypts files created in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 in order to protect them from reverse engineering and not authorized usage, thus guarding copyrighted source code. In case you would like to protect your custom script, for example, you can employ Zend Guard and your code will no longer be human readable, but you'll also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your website. Numerous pre-made script-driven applications, especially ones which are paid, also need Zend Optimizer so as to function effectively because their core code is often not free to change. Websites which use the instrument are generally quicker as their program code is already optimized and precompiled.
