Apple explains on the same page that "For the equivalent level of security on a Mac with Apple silicon, simply turn on FileVault". If this doesn't work for you, please edit the question and describe the access protection problem you are trying to solve here. There are some things in the comments below, but that doesn't help to make the question easier to understand. | |

Thank you very much for the clarifying comment. Another edit may be needed if you don't want to select Linc Davis' very good answer. | |
