I am looking for an Encryption solution for 'Data in Rest' for old disks

One of the options we thought of, was to encrypt the data through some
FICON facility which sit on the FICON channel.
I could not find provider for such device on the internet (maybe I used
wrong semantics).
If someone is using or know about such solution willing to send me a link
of the web site's manufacturer ?
So you want whole-disk encryption, not encryption of specific fields? What's
the use case/problem you're trying to solve? We're strong believers in
field-level data protection, as it provides the best security. I'd be
interested in hearing more details...
Well,
I vaguely remember such device for ESCON and (emulated) tape CU. (Note,
I don't mean encryption feature on tape drives.)
I'm not aware of any such device for FICON.
BTW: What's wrong with whole disk encryption? Why field-level encryption
is better? IMHO it addresses different needs.
BTW2: There is an option for whole disk encryption, but this is a
feature of DASD box, so "old disk without self-encrypting facility" need
to be replaced.
BTW3: There are other solutions, like Encryption Facility, SecureZip,
which encrypt datasets, the dataset can be a addrdssu dump, so it can
containt any dataset or whole volume. Note, that costs license and
consumes CPU cycles.
