You aren't going to be able to do this for apps already installed on the device. It simply won't be possible, this would violate a lot of security considerations. The only way in which I can see this being remotely possible is if you had a bunch of apps that were using a third party service to authenticate before starting the app, and simply doing automatic authentication without checking for password, and then updating this service to switch it to require a password.
But for apps already out there, you simply won't be able to intercept their lifecycle changes, this isn't really how the system's built. (Also it would be really bad if you could lock somebody's phone just by installing another application.)
