Answer 1

If you have access to Cpanel on your website, go to files.

Select the directory you want and change the permissions.

Some will allow you to add a password.

Answer 2

You could put all your files into a password protected zip file and upload that. The only problem is that you would need to unzip them to access them. On the plus side it is the most secure method of securing your data.
