"I'm sorry, that's top secret. I mean, I could tell you, but I'd have to kill you. Your choice."

That’s not going to get you the job.

I’d just go with “I’m sorry; most people don’t have the appropriate security level so I don’t write those jobs down. What’s your clearance level?”

You can always follow that up with “I worked for a shell corporation that we stood up for the job and dissolved when it was finished. You won’t have heard of it.”

"I'm sorry, I cannot disclose that information without proper security clearances. You will need to make a request with [Government of your country] and they will decide what to do with your request. I can inform you that I did [computer work/ manual labor/ mechanical work/whatever type of work that is relevant] for X hours a day. Thank you for being understanding of regulations.I can tell you anything you would like to know about any other job, however. "

If you sound like you're repeating something like it's the 50th time today, it sells it even better.
