Zend Optimizer is a well-known software, that's needed to execute files protected with Zend Guard. The latter encrypts files written in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 in order to protect them from reverse engineering and illegal use, thus guarding copyrighted source code. In case you'd like to protect your custom-made script, for example, you can take advantage of Zend Guard and your code will not be human readable, but you'll also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your website. Numerous ready-made script-driven applications, especially ones that are paid, also need Zend Optimizer so as to function effectively as their core code is usually not free to change. Sites that use the tool are often quicker as their program code is already optimized and precompiled.
