Users can't switch skins unless you have implemented skin switching, so 
there is no need to have password protection.

I am assuming that by "group" you mean a collection of users with common 
interests, and not a wiki group.

If you want different user groups to have different skins, then you should 
set up a wiki farm with a field for each user group. Give each field its 
own pub/skins/ directory.

If you want different user groups to have different skins for the same 
wiki, that is a different, and potentially very confusing matter.
