I have limited experience, but we do have a product that support S/FTP
on the mainframe as well as Windows and Unix.

The product for the mainframe is Connect Enterprise from Sterling
Commerce, Inc. The Windows/Unix product is WS_FTP Pro from IPSWITCH,
Inc. We use both and they work very well.

Thanks,

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.
