The 10 most secure places in the world are:


- Cheyenne Mountain - the command, control, communication and intelligence centre for coordinating and controlling North American Aerospace Defence Command and US Space Command missions

- HavenCo - a data-protection company based six miles off Britain, at Sealand in the North Sea, to which all but authorised staff, investors and members of the Royal Family are denied access

- ADX-Florence Prison - a maximum security jail in Colorado, US, where electronic doors, cameras and audio equipment allow a single guard to control the movements of numerous prisoners in several cell blocks

- Deposed Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein's Baghdad bunker - a shelter where occupants could survive a direct hit from an atomic bomb for six months

- The Mormon Church records store - vaults encased in rock at Granite Mountains, Utah, US, where armed guards waving metal detector wands usher visitors into a concrete bunker before swinging open metal gates to a tunnel entrance

- Fort Knox - a bank vault with a 25-tonne (24.6-ton) door

-The 1960s Bar - part of the Burlington bunker in Wiltshire

- Air Force One - a modified Boeing aircraft with all the latest safety technology, which flies the US President around the world

- Area 51 - a US military facility about 90 miles north of Las Vegas

And probably the lab were the last smallpox samples are kept is a very secure place. Long time ago there were only 3?¿ labs worldwide with enough security to study smallpox. One is in Atlanta USA, I think that it's part of the CDC.

Smallpox, which can spread through the air and kills about 30% of those infected, was declared eradicated worldwide by the WHO in 1980, the last known case having occurred in Somalia in 1977. The disease was eradicated in the US long before that, however, and regular vaccination of American children was discontinued in 1972.

Public concern over a possible bioterror release of live smallpox virus rose after the events of September 11, 2001. Experts have debated for years as to the need to destroy the two remaining known stockpiles of the virus -- one held at the Koltsovos facility(fomer Soviet Union), the other at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, Georgia. Both facilities are now subject to inspection on a regular basis by WHO-appointed biosafety teams
