Zend Optimizer is a well-known piece of software, that is needed to execute files encrypted with Zend Guard. The second encrypts files written in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 in order to protect them from reverse engineering and not authorized use, thus guarding copyrighted source code. If you want to protect your custom-made script, for instance, you'll be able to use Zend Guard and your code will not be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your blog. A number of pre-made script-driven applications, particularly ones that are paid, also require Zend Optimizer in order to function efficiently because their core code is often not free to modify. Internet sites which use the tool are usually speedier as their program code is already optimized and precompiled.
