Zend Optimizer is a popular software, that's required to run files protected 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 usage, thus guarding copyrighted source code. When you would like to protect your custom-written script, for instance, you will be able to employ 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 website. A large number of ready-made script-driven applications, particularly ones which are paid, also require Zend Optimizer so as to work efficiently because their core code is usually not free to modify. Websites which use the instrument are normally quicker as their program code is already optimized and precompiled.
