Zend Optimizer is a well-known software, that is needed to run files encrypted with Zend Guard. The latter encodes files created in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 to protect them from reverse engineering and not authorized usage, thus guarding copyrighted source code. When you wish to protect your custom script, for instance, you are able to use 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. Many pre-made script-driven applications, especially ones that are paid, also need Zend Optimizer to work efficiently as their core code is generally not free to modify. Sites which use the tool are typically faster because their program code is already optimized and precompiled.
