Maybe, this is a extravagant query: is it possible to use LyX to produce
password-protected PDF files?

Thank you a lot in advance!

Also note that PDF passwords are an extremely weak form of symmetrical
encryption. They provide only an small inconvenience for an advanced
computer user that wants to read your PDF. If you want solid encryption
that a government can't crack, use GnuPG from gnupg.org.
