Zend Optimizer is a popular piece of software, which is needed to execute files protected with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encrypts files created in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 so as to protect them from reverse engineering and unauthorized usage, thus guarding copyright protected source code. If you would like to protect your custom-written script, for example, you're able to employ Zend Guard and your program code won't be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your website. A large number of ready-made script-driven applications, in particular ones that are paid, also need Zend Optimizer to work properly since their core code is often not free to modify. Sites that use the tool are normally faster as their program code is already optimized and precompiled.
