Many licensed and some free of cost script-driven applications have protected program code, which isn't human readable. The concept behind this is to stop the reverse engineering and the unwanted usage of such apps. One of the most popular encryption software tools used for this particular purpose is called Zend Guard and it is very popular because it can be used to change any PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 code. The only way for the encrypted files to work the right way on a web server after that is if a second tool called Zend Optimizer is present. In the event that you want to work with any type of paid web software requiring Zend Optimizer, you should make sure that it is set up on the server where you'll host your site. Also, sites that need the instrument generally perform better because their program code is already precompiled and optimized, and therefore it is executed more quickly.
