How can I add a transparent lock screen in Raspbian/Pixel

I want to use my Raspberry Pi as a very simple uptime dashboard and have a specific Web page showing up all the time. For practical security purposes though, I'd like to have a lock so someone can't change stuff while I'm away.



Is there a way to have a "transparent lock screen" or something similar? Mr Google pointed me to xlock but that doesn't seem to be available for raspbian/pixel.
