Zend Optimizer is an instrument, that's required to run files encrypted with Zend Guard - a widespread app that is used to encode PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 files with the objective to protect them from tampering with the program code or reverse engineering. Zend Guard is used by a great number of corporations which make paid script apps, so when you buy such an application for your site, you'll probably need Zend Optimizer to be present on the server where you will host it. In case you are a programmer, you may also use Zend Guard to shield your program code and ensure that your website visitors or clients will not be able to alter it in any way. Sites that use Zend Optimizer usually perform much better as their PHP code is precompiled, therefore it is already optimized and will be executed a lot quicker.
