Zend Optimizer is a well-known piece of software, which is needed to execute files encrypted with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encrypts files written 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. If you wish to protect your custom-written script, for example, you will be able to employ Zend Guard and your code won't be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your site. A large number of pre-made script-driven applications, in particular ones that are paid, also require Zend Optimizer so as to work effectively because their core code is often not free to change. Internet sites that use the instrument are usually faster as their program code is already optimized and pre-compiled.
