Solution 1

Default keyboard shortcut in ubuntu 18 :

  • Lock screen is Super + L
  • Log out is Ctrl + Alt + Delete

If you want to change it, you can change it in Setting > Devices > Keyboard > System

Solution 2

As per this answer: Where is the power off button in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS ? try:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.lockdown disable-lock-screen false

Solution 3

Default keyboard shortcut in Xubuntu 18 seems to be Ctrl+Alt+L for those using this flavor
