Adam mentioned needing an "armed guard" but I suspect the costing of the armed guard you'd really need would be out of all proportion to the estimated cost thereof when power prices are being calculated. A full time SAS team or three can't come cheap, the 5 or 10 BlackHawks add quite a lot, and I don't know what the CIA cost themselves out at. A certain gentleman who may be in Afghanistan, Pakistan, elsewhere or dead would surely love people to litter the world with these - My, Grandma, what big and dirty teeth you have - all the better to find one or several with. You can call that policial, or common sense. They won't hunt.
