What I mean is like add protection for copying, deleting and modifying files. The protection could be a password. Is it possible for anyone to do this or attempt to do this.

Most that would be possible is encrypting it, and then making the decryption program that reads and modifies it incomprehensible, but if the user has control of the hardware, they can always reverse engineer. This is why DRM fails so hard at stopping pirates irl.

Well, an unix-like user and permission system would definetely be a cool thing.
