Can you be more precise about what is wrong with Zend's offering? More importantly perhaps have you asked Zend about the issues raised? I am assuming here that you are talking about Zend Server (i.e. the current product) and not Zend Core.

"authentication" is a function of PHP itself and (as far as I know) is no more or less secure than any other language. There are also multiple authentication options including having Apache do it against IBM i user profiles. All of which is a way of saying that what they are saying appears to make no sense.

Since Zend are the major contributor to the PHP engine and Zend Server is a production hardened and secured version of the engine that everyone else uses, I can't see how any other version would be more secure.

Maybe Mike Pavlak can comment further.

Operations tells me that the way Zend handles authentication doesn't conform to our corporate security policies. As a result, we can't install it on our system. I don't think this a battle I can win.
