I was just asked the same thing.
I tried to get a 3270 emulator to support SSL/TLS but was told by our
manager that SSL had nothing to do with encryption so forget it.
Anyway, I'm in the process of trying to install the ICSF and have also found
some keywords in the IP Configuration manual for secure FTP.

Sorry to say but your manager is absolutely, positively clueless. SSL or
TLS definitely has to do with encryption. From a security standpoint, it
is one of the best implementations of encryption methods available today.
The TN3270E server on z/OS supports SSL and TLS for encrypted sessions,
optionally even to the point of authenticating users with digital
certificates.
