Zend Optimizer is a well-known software, which is needed to run files encrypted with Zend Guard. The second encrypts files written in PHP 4 and PHP 5 to protect them from reverse engineering and unauthorized usage, thus guarding copyrighted source code. In case you'd like to protect your custom-made script, for example, you can employ Zend Guard and your program code will no longer be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your website. Numerous ready-made script-driven applications, particularly ones which are paid, also need Zend Optimizer so as to function correctly because their core code is often not free to change. Sites which use the instrument are usually faster since their program code is already optimized and pre-compiled.
