Numerous licensed and some cost-free script-driven apps have protected program code, that is not human readable. The concept behind this is to avoid the reverse engineering and the unwanted use of such applications. Among the most popular file encryption software instruments used for this specific purpose is called Zend Guard and it is commonly used as it can be used to change any kind of PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 code. The only method for the encoded files to run effectively on a web server subsequently is if one more tool called Zend Optimizer is there. When you would like to use any kind of paid web software requiring Zend Optimizer, you should make sure that it is installed on the server where you will host your site. In addition, sites that require the tool will perform better due to the fact that their program code is already precompiled and optimized, meaning that it is executed more rapidly.
