Zend Optimizer is a popular piece of software, that is required to execute files protected with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encodes files created in PHP 4 and PHP 5 to protect them from reverse engineering and not authorized usage, thus guarding copyright protected source code. When you want to protect your custom-made script, for example, you will be able to employ Zend Guard and your program code will not be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your site. A number of ready-made script-driven applications, especially ones that are paid, also require Zend Optimizer to work effectively as their core code is usually not free to change. Sites that use the tool are generally faster because their code is already optimized and precompiled.
