You can password protect individual pages and posts. Under the Publish section of the dashboard, look under the link for VISIBILITY. The default setting is PUBLIC, but you can change it to PRIVATE, which only you can see when you’re logged in, or PASSWORD PROTECTED, which requires you to enter a password when you are posting the page/post, and for the reader to enter the password to view the content. Using this method, there is no username but you can control visibility
An alternative would be to use a membership plugin, which requires an individual user to log in, where you control their access to areas of your blog/site and what documents they have access.
