Zend Optimizer is a popular piece of software, which is required to run files protected with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encodes files created in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 to protect them from reverse engineering and not authorized use, thus guarding copyrighted source code. When you need to protect your custom-made script, for instance, you will 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. A large number of pre-made script-driven apps, in particular ones which are paid, also require Zend Optimizer in order to work properly since their core code is usually not free to change. Sites which use the instrument are usually faster as their code is already optimized and pre-compiled.
