We can protect the secret name using RACF. Using the rename method, we do not need to change the original IBM module in case of an error/emergency/etc. We can still use ADRDSSU directly.
I don't understand how you will "protect the secret name using RACF". True, you can define it in the PROGRAM class and any user trying to invoke it directly will fail.
However, when your module eventually tries to invoke the secret name, it will also fail.
Renaming ADRDSSU, by the way, will potentially cause you some problems when you try to apply maintenance (PTFs) to the system.
