Zend Guard is a program to protect PHP scripts by encoding and obfuscating code. It allows web developers and programmers to protect their work and prevent other users from accessing, parsing or otherwise using their PHP code.
Zend Technologies Zend Guard review
As mentioned above, the main methods to protect scripts are coding and obfuscation, let’s take a closer look at them. When encoding, the source code of PHP is converted to an intermediate format of the code of the internal PHP virtual machine, and then encrypted, you can not read it after this procedure, and it will run without problems. The main thing here is to correctly specify the version of the language that was used when writing the script. In case of obfuscation or confusion, the source code is converted (you can say “shuffled”) so that it will be almost impossible to read and understand it. But the script will remain operable in this case.
Besides, in Zend Guard program you can create temporary licenses and generated keys for creating trial and trial versions. The expiration date as well as other parameters can be set for each file individually.
It is not difficult to work with the program, using the Project Wizard it is enough to specify the path to your PHP files to be protected, choose the language version and type of conversion. For detailed settings there is a manual mode and a lot of documentation with examples.
