Is it possible to decode a zend security encoded file?

I searched php encoder and found zend protection. I googled about protection and found out that there are many decoders for zend protection.

Zend told me that it is not possible to decode zend encoded files, but internet users disagree.

I cannot find a clear answer to my situation.

what do you guys think?

Simply put, it must be decrypted for you to run it. At some point, encrypted data is decrypted into PHP bytecode during normal operation, which means that someone could grab that bytecode and keep it unencrypted.

However, it may not be possible to recover the original PHP source, just as you cannot get the C ++ source code, comments and everything by decompiling the .exe file.



So in the end, both sides are right, for specific "decoding" values.

And tools like Zend Guard will never stop a specific attacker, making their value questionable.

The source code can be decoded back to valid PHP, there are some less authoritative services out there



However, not coding your source tends to work fine as it allows people to hack their own code to make a slightly customized version
