The typical responses from mwbot:

!access
*For information on customizing user access, see
<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:User_rights>. For common
examples of restricting access using both rights and extensions, see
<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Preventing_access>.

!cms
*Wikis are designed for openness, to be readable and editable by all.
If you want a forum, a blog, a web authoring toolkit or corporate
content management system, perhaps don't use wiki software. There is a
nice overview of free tools available at
<http://www.opensourcecms.com/> including the possibility to try each
system.

!secrets
*MediaWiki was not designed with read-restrictions in mind, and may
not provide air-tight protection against unauthorized access. We will
not be held responsible should private information, such as a password
or bank details, be leaked, leading to loss of funds or one's job.

http://mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Lockdown or one of the other
extensions might work.
