Can we implement the SHA-256 hash algorithm (generic SHA-256 pseudo code) in COBOL component itself.
I need to know the feasibility of the bitwise operations in COBOL language
because I could check in some websites that cobol won't support all the bitwise operations. Is that so?

COBOL will, but natively, it is not easy.....
Have you looked into the LE Bit manipulation routines?
