I once read an NSA employee manual which talked about how you should talk about your work. It said you should be truthful without making it sound exciting or mysterious.
If asked "where do you work" you say "the department of defense". If asked what branch you say "the NSA". If asked what you do, you say "research". And that's it, apparently.
No doubt there are other manuals for other types of employee, but they're not available on the Internet.

We used to just mess with crappy computers all day while doing the equivalent of memorizing phonebooks. suuuuper boring stuff.
