Intel would be a strange beast for you today J.
There's a secret underground facility in Oregon (perhaps Cali too) for
classified intelligence work. some small fraction of Intel employees even
know it exists.
There they sequester CPU vulnerability research of sufficient implication.
There they sequester hardware level exploitation research of sufficient
implication. There they work on TS/SCI compartmented projects for USGOV.

Hillsboro, OR
To the east, power (and interesting perimeter controls)
To the west, underground TS facilities accessed via underground
tunnel under parking to main complex.
