That is not way to secure your plugin because WP-plugins are open-source and user have fully right to changes.

If you encode it with ZendGuard or ionCube, it can't be modified but will not be GPL friendly so make sure you're OK with that. Plus it'll need a runtime installed on server.
If you ship it plain source, it can be edited and the whole self-verification part can be removed or any obfuscation you do can be reversed.

Scripting languages can't be properly protected, software either.

Read this one too.
