PHP Encryption tool, what are the advantages of ioncube and ZendOptimizer?

In PHP project development, the commonly used encryption tool is Zend Company’s ZendGuard, which mainly relies on the analysis of ZendOptimizer. The other is ionCube PHP Encode from ionCube Company. These two commonly used Encode software have different functions and respective advantages.

ZendOptimizer（Zend Guard）：

1. Zend Guard can only encrypt files with PHP tags or source code. It cannot encrypt other files saved in text mode without PHP tags.

2. ZendGuard can only be used in an environment configured with ZendOptimizer and cannot run independently.

3. ZendGuard has an error under PHP4. There will be a big difference between the absolute path and relative path of PHP4 when encrypting.

4. Supports encryption of PHP4.2.X~5.2.X versions.

5. The ZendOptimizer (PHP engine) used can improve the speed optimization of the source code by more than 20 to 50%. When combined with ZendGuard, the performance speed optimization can be improved to more than 50%, and ZendOptimizer can be installed in many current mainstream systems.

ionCube：

1. ionCube can not only encrypt PHP files with PHP tags or source code, but also can encrypt non-PHP files saved in text mode, such as xml, js, css, etc. (But when reading and writing, you must use the reading API provided by ionCube for reading and writing operations.)

2. ionCube has been tested to be superior to Zend’s ZendGuard in terms of functionality. It not only supports encryption methods such as expiration date, registration code, etc., but also supports complex encryption methods such as IP and MAC addresses.

At this point, the above is the editor’s introduction to the problem of zend encryption cracking. I hope these 3 points of answers will be useful to everyone.

Can zend decrypt PHP after encrypting it?

If it can be encrypted, it can be decrypted.

Decrypt ZEND-encrypted PHP files:

The zend encrypted php file decryption tool Dezender can do it.

(Picture source from the Internet, deleted due to infringement)

1. Download Dezender.zip

2. Unzip it to the disk. It is best not to have a Chinese path. For example, unzip it to I:Dezender, modify the I:DezenderPHP5PHP5php.ini file, and modify the file path inside.

3. Open cmd command line

Then you can see that there will be an additional file under the file directory filename.de.php

What decryptable encryption algorithms does PHP have?

If you can encrypt, you can naturally decrypt, it just takes time. For example, as for the current common source code encryption methods, zend52, zend53, zend54, zym, phpjiami, phpjm… all have corresponding software for decryption.
