Find out what IonCube is and the reasons why it’s set up on just about every server running PHP presently.

IonCube Loader is an instrument, that's needed to run files which are encoded with ionCube PHP Encoder. The aforementioned is an application employed to make PHP code human unreadable, in order to protect it from reverse engineering or not authorized usage. Numerous script-driven applications, particularly discussion forums, content management systems and e-commerce solutions are encrypted with ionCube PHP Encoder, so when you get a script and you find that ionCube is one of the website hosting environment prerequisites, you need to make sure that your web hosting server has the tool pre-installed. Although it is not that difficult to set it up when you have your own server, it is close to impossible to do that on a shared hosting server for the reason that the PHP environment will have to be precompiled and all of the clients on the server shall be affected.
