Yes.
But the best way is to encrypt some of all of it.
Password required, no one can access the data without the password.
VeraCrypt is good for this.

Question - Password lock

Is there a way to put a password for a folder, that way a password must be entered to access it. I am not a great fan of hidden folders and all the folder unseen business. I like everything visible and for the once that I need a little extra security, a password option to access the folder. Thanks
