![]() ionCube (and SourceGuardian) include methods for generating license files as well which should also be useful to you - with Zend you need to purchase their SafeGuard suite at $6000 or so to do that. It’s secure, well priced from only $199 and Nick and his team are extremely good at supporting users. Out of all three, I would recommend ionCube to you. The features in SourceGuardian are roughly comparable to ionCube’s, so it’s well worth a look. Adrian and the other people at SourceGuardian are happy to admit prior mistakes and talk about what happened, so if you are concerned then you shouldn’t hesitate to drop them an email. SourceGuardian v4 is a lot more secure than previous versions (which could be returned to some form of source). This gets you Zend Studio and Zend Encoder for $395 (and then $295 every year) which are both excellent applications. If you like the look of Zend but the price is the only thing that puts you off, you might want to take a look at their Small Business Program ( ). Read the “How secure is it?” from their FAQ to hear that in their own words. The reason it’s so cheap is that it’s stupidly insecure. You could interpret experienced to mean "is able to replace eval with echo!"Īs I said then, if you're serious about protecting your code from prying eyes then I would stay well away from any PHP based encoding system. "The fact is, any PHP encryption program does needs to decrypt the file at some time, so the code will theoretically be available to experienced crackers during its execution." "Codelock for PHP is a strong deterrent." ![]() I wasn't impressed then, and I'm not sure much has changed. I briefly looked at codelock a year ago, responding to a couple of threads: IonCube also have an online encoder, which can work out fairly inexpensive for small projects (btw I don’t work for IonCube).
