IonCube
What is IonCube? Precisely how does IonCube work and when do you really need it for your PHP applications?
In order to stop the reverse engineering of script applications, a number of developers encode their program code with tools such as ionCube PHP Encoder in order to make it human unreadable. The aforementioned is valid for paid applications in particular, since anybody could possibly use and change the unencrypted code without having to pay the necessary license fees. When you buy web software encoded with ionCube PHP Encoder, you can use it without any problems as long as a software instrument named ionCube Loader is present on the web hosting server. This loader makes it possible to run encoded files and you'll often notice it as one of the prerequisites for a particular script application to be installed. Because the encrypted files are already precompiled, they are generally executed a lot faster and this will enhance the general speed of your site.
