Is it possible to use this configuration ((ICSF) on z890 with no 
coprocessors)  to encrypt particular fields, SSN, credit card numbers, 
etc?  For example, get the number from the Internet, or whereever, have 
the Cobol (ex) program call some funciton to  encrypt it in memory, and 
then store the encrypted field in IMS, VSAM etc.  Then have the program 
(cobol for example) read in the encrypted field, call some function to 
decrypt it for processing.  Yes, I know that encrypting select fields has 
problems, but management is not willing to pay to encrypt everything.
