There is a real push back on the idea of any "protection" as MW is designed with Wikipeida and the other Wiki* projects in mind.
There are some extensions available which add a level of *security* ... BUT you must know that security is in the mind of the beholder. If someone has a basic level of connection to your system it is possible that they can hack into other bits (you can't stop and dishonest person .. only keep an honest person honest :)
Take a look at the extension pages and see if there is something there that will work. I believe I remember seeing something like that available.

Well, I need a combination of functionalities - somethings may/need to be edited by all, but some - only by the correspondent creators. Do you mean that the current MediaWiki doesn't support such a behavior?

It sounds like MediaWiki is the wrong tool for your purposes.
