Zend Optimizer is a well-known piece of software, that's required to run files encrypted with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encrypts files written in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 in order to protect them from reverse engineering and unauthorized usage, thus guarding copyrighted source code. If you'd like to protect your custom-written script, for example, you will be able to employ Zend Guard and your code will no longer be human readable, but you'll also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your site. Lots of ready-made script-driven apps, in particular ones that are paid, also need Zend Optimizer to operate correctly since their core code is usually not free to change. Sites that use the tool are often speedier since their program code is already optimized and precompiled.
