Through JCL?... you will need a program to be run from JCL.

skumar,

JCL - Though you call it "Job Control Language", it doesn't do any processing that a High Level Language (COBOL, PL/I...) does. You need to write a program in any High Level Langauge or Assembler with the Encrypt/Decrypt logic and invoke the program using JCL.

Thanks,

There are two options ENCIPHER and DECIPHER in REPRO thru which encryption can be done.
You can check the syntax in VSAM manual.
