Thank you very much for your ideas and time.I was considering to copy variable

For those that might be interested, I have made available the package called
RACF Snoop on my website here, https://rsclweb.com/ .
This package allows you to see the details of RACF environments in running
address spaces. The program is rather old (> 20 years) and needs a few tweaks.

Of course they do.
Everyone wants to.
Whoever owns the data, owns you along with all the networking chatter
that goes along with it.
Apps are generally easier to move too. The data is generally more sticky.
In both cases however, be very careful if you can't move it all!

The packages in open repositories for languages like Java and Perl have many
eyes examinging them, even if there are no official bodies certifying them. How
does that make any of those packages less secure than a roll-your=own package
in COBOL? In fact, how is it not the other way around? Why is
You don't need the CLC; the NC sets the condition code.

The only "advantage" (note the quotes!) of a roll your own solution is
security by obscurity. There are also many evil eyes looking for
vulnerabilities in the open source packages. Your own COBOL solution? Maybe
no evil eyes (maybe a few?).

Thank you _very_ much. That did the trick.
After your hint I did some web search and then found [1] which for
whatever reason didn't show up in my previous research.
I then coded the MODEENT as

In general, we've seen articles where some extremely basic npm package gets

So unnecessary package/library dependency is one.

Does IBM have anything to say about this? I assume it's on their security

SAS uses Java and has issued a blog post. Many SAS products use Java and are
