Can the iMac screen brightness be locked

I use my iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2017) for photography but other users often adjust the screen brightness. Is there a way of locking the screen brightness so I can't be messed with?

Using Catalina 10.15.6

iMac 27″ 5K, macOS 10.15

You can setup separate Users Accounts in System Preferences. They will still have access to most if not all applications, but access documents, photos, etc. will be limited. They will be able to set their preferences for brightness etc. thereby locking your own settings.
