    Yes, you can set authentication for this.

    Login to SEPM

    Clients page

    Select your relevant group

    Policies tab

    Under Settings select General Setting

    Security Settings tab

    Check the box for "Require a password to stop the client service"

    Click OK and once the client pickd up the policy change, run smc -stop and it will ask for the password
