There's a semi-secure way (as the developer of the tools mention that this tool can be vulnerable to some kind of attack method) but useful way. using encfs

first, you need to install it via a package manager.

e.g. sudo apt install encfs

Note that during installation, the package manager will notice about vulnerability

then you need to run the program to create the directory and its raw storage directory.
with this command you do this:

encfs ~/.crypt ~/crypt

After this step, it will say to enter expert or normal mode. select what you wish and enter your desirable password.

The last step is unmounting the directory to protect data. for that just do this:

sudo umount ~/crypt

UPDATE:

you can use the GUI way.

also, you can use Unix permissions which mentioned here.
