I found a useful screen lockup script at https://github.com/sgilroy/AutoBodyHot/blob/master/SoftDesktopLock/LockUP.ahk. The post was made way back during 2012.
It successfully blocks all keyboard and mouse input in locked state. However, upon pressing "Escape" key, the password entry dialog opens during which time anyone can press Alt+Tab to switch to any of the windows that were open before locking screen. This access to windows through Alt+Tab key during password dialog is a security issue and should not be allowed. Any solutions?

Re: Help needed regarding LockUp script
Adding your code to the end of original script fixed this security issue. Thanks.
