PHP Integral Obfuscator

PHP Integral Obfuscator is a tool to obfuscates PHP code. It compiles a PHP code to a binary file.

Advantage(s) of Using Obfuscator

1. Make your PHP code not human readable. It is good for protecting your private code against people and script kiddies.

Disadvantages of Using Obfuscator

1. Obfuscator may slow down your application in the start process (it does not affect your application runtime performance). But, if you are using it on a web-based application, the start process is done for every request. So, code obfuscation is only good for a CLI based application, not a web-based application.
2. The obfuscated file size is larger than the non-obfuscated file.
3. An obfuscated application may not be started properly due to inaccurate analyses, bugs in internal obfuscator, or any other possibilities.

History

I created a PHP obfuscator that called IceTea Obfuscator (https://github.com/ammarfaizi2/icetea_obfuscator). But, it was not a good obfuscator, since the obfuscated code was really easy to be reversed. So here, I create a better obfuscator and named it PHP Integral Obfuscator.
