Default Possible to protect settings menu with an android app?

My employer has told me to create an android app to do the following:

The ability to password protect specific submenus in the Settings menu (i.e. specifically Privacy, Applications, and Location & Security).

Is this possible without rooting?

I can't see how. The built-in settings app doesn't provide for this. So you'd need to code a custom settings app. This, AFAIK, wouldn't need a rooted device. But removing the built-in settings app would.
