You can lock the record by giving
Validation rules -- throwing error message while someone is trying to edit,
Permission Sets -- To assign these permission sets to users,
triggers -- in apex you can lock() and unlock() records (Approval.lock(accts, false);) functions,
Approval Process -- to lock records.

- Validation rules. Though this wont work in all cases as you might have to do ISCHANGED on all fields.
- triggers.
- Workflows and record types
- Approval process Lock and Unlock methods.
- using FOR UPDATE in SOQL for retriving records to update.
- OOB Approval process record lock options.
If using for bulk updates FOR Update is better option. Watch out for deadlock situations.You can lock the record by giving
