Zend Optimizer is a tool, that's needed to run files protected with Zend Guard - a widespread app that is employed to encrypt PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 files with the purpose to protect them from tampering with the code or reverse engineering. Zend Guard is used by a lot of corporations that develop paid script apps, so if you purchase such an app for your website, you will most likely need Zend Optimizer to be available on the server where you will host it. In case you're a programmer, you can use Zend Guard to shield your program code and ensure that your website visitors or customers won't be able to change it in any way. Sites that use Zend Optimizer generally perform better as their PHP code is precompiled, therefore it is already optimized and will be executed more rapidly.
