Zend Optimizer is a well-known piece of software, that's required to execute files encrypted with Zend Guard. The latter encodes files written in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 so as to protect them from reverse engineering and unauthorized use, thus guarding copyright protected source code. In case you want to protect your custom script, for example, you'll be able to take advantage of Zend Guard and your code will not be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your website. Lots of pre-made script-driven applications, especially ones which are paid, also require Zend Optimizer to function correctly as their core code is generally not free to modify. Internet sites which use the instrument are normally quicker as their program code is already optimized and pre-compiled.
