What is an ionCube decoder?
An ionCube Decoder is a utility that recovers human-readable PHP from files protected with ionCube. With UnZend, decoding runs locally so your files never leave your computer. The focus is on producing readable, maintainable output that’s suitable for audits, upgrades, and long-term maintenance of projects you own.
