Not that I know of.
And you should NOT ENCRYPT the fields, but replace the data, as not
doing so would mean you were still giving away confidential
information without a valid and legal warranty that third parties
could not decript the information.
Depending on your COBOL version and OS you may be able to find
programs that go through your data and replace the contents of
specific fields with "dummy" data, but you will need to give us more
details.
