[Jen31000]

I can only answer part of your question since I know nothing of the Protestant faith. In making the sign of the cross, we are honoring the Trinity: The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit. I never thought of it as a sign of protection, but it is possibly for thanks for all that God has done for us.
