Oxrion

How it works

From source to protected — in three steps

You protect code on your own machine with the free desktop app. The server you deploy to needs only the free loader. Oxrion never stores your source.

The flow

Subscribe, protect, run

  1. 01

    Subscribe

    Create an account at app.oxrion.com and pick a plan. You get an Encoder Key that powers the desktop app and carries your daily protection limit.

  2. 02

    Protect

    Open Oxrion Desktop, sign in with your key, and point it at a file, folder, or ZIP. Every PHP file is protected in one pass — sent over an encrypted connection, processed in memory, returned immediately. Nothing is stored.

  3. 03

    Run

    Deploy the protected files to any server with the free Oxrion loader installed. PHP runs them transparently — full speed, OPcache and all.

One free app

Everything lives in Oxrion Desktop

The encoder protects your code through your plan. The licenser, recovery, and key tools all run fully offline on your machine — no account, no connection.

Strong encryption

Your source is sealed with strong, industry-standard cryptography. The original code never ships — only a protected file that runs but cannot be read.

Always recoverable

Protected files are never a one-way street. The Oxrion Desktop app restores your original source offline, on your own machine, with your recovery key — no account, no upload, no lock-in.

Cross-platform

Linux and Windows, PHP 8.1 through 8.4. The same protected file runs across every supported platform — protect once, deploy anywhere.

Built for production

Protected files are optimized to stay small and load fast. Smaller artifacts mean quicker deploys and a lighter footprint on your servers.

Frequently asked questions

Can't find what you're looking for? Reach out — we read every message.

  • Will my protected files run on my server?

    Yes. Your production server only needs the free Oxrion loader installed as a PHP extension. Once it's in place, protected files run just like normal PHP — no changes to your application required.

  • What PHP versions are supported?

    PHP 8.1 through 8.4, on Linux and Windows.

  • Is my source code safe when I protect it?

    Yes. To protect a file, the Desktop app sends it over an encrypted connection, it's processed in memory, and the protected result is returned immediately — then everything is discarded. No source is saved to disk, no copies go into a database, and your licenses are generated locally in the app. There's nothing left on our side to expose.

  • Can I protect a whole project at once?

    Yes. In the Oxrion Desktop app, point it at a folder or drop in a ZIP and every PHP file inside is protected in one pass, with your folder structure preserved.

  • Where does encryption happen?

    In the Oxrion Desktop app on your machine. The app sends your files over a secure connection using your Encoder Key, they're protected in memory, and the result is handed straight back. Nothing is written to permanent storage — your source is discarded the moment processing finishes.
