Encoding capabilities

SourceGuardian gives you the possibility to select the files that you want to encrypt. In addition, you may add the content of an entire folder to the list.You are allowed to encode data as PHP script or template, and exclude user-defined files from being encoded or copied to the destination folder. In addition, you may copy items into the destination directory as unencrypted, such as text, javascript, configuration, and images.What’s more, you can choose a destination folder, set the target PHP versions in order to ensure maximum compatibility, as well as configure various locking options which are related to IP address, domain name, hardware MAC address, and expiration date.At the end of the encoding task you can view a log which includes information about the number of processed files and possible errors.SourceGuardian is able to show detailed information about a protected script or license file, such as file location, signature, license, constant, PHP version, loader CRC, and license expiration date.

Configuration settings

The application helps you specify the file types (e.g. PHP, HTML, INC) that are encoded as PHP scripts by default, exclude items from the encryption mode based on file types (e.g. CSV, TXT), and define the default PHP target versions and locking options.All in all, SourceGuardian gathers under its hood a suite of advanced features for helping you protect your PHP scripts from viewing and editing. The locking options are particularly useful as they allow you to lock your files based on the server IP, domain name, MAC address or a defined time period.
