Subject: Extreme Computer Security
I belong to an organization which provides comprehensive legal services across 250 offices. We serve many established and early stage clients who work at creating innovative new products and services in the software and internet industries. To create intellectual property and protection is a major priority for our clients, for which we need a safe way to interact with new software applications and internet solutions without introducing security risks to their work computer. Could you please suggest an appropriate solution for the same? Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure what you're asking for here. Are you looking for best practices? Better user seperation? Exploit protection? Generically, I'd say start with grsec (http://www.grsecurity.net/) and be sure to include PAX with it (http://pax.grsecurity.net/)

You can try for some virtual machine that can evaluate new software applications and is capable of browsing the web safely. Using such VM on the main machine, would enable to run one or more separate virtual machines. I hope this helps.

Right, by doing so, you can safely evaluate new software applications and browse the internet without introducing threats to their work computers from software still in development or from online malware. You can install and run software applications in VM to evaluate features and functionality without risk of operating system or application compatibility or stability issues with their work computer. Using some complete PC environment, including operating system and applications, get the true end-user experience from each application.
