The article provides an overview of the technology of insertion modeling and its use in the creation of digital twins. The main concepts of the theory of agents and environments, behavior algebra and the basics of symbolic multi-agent modeling are presented within the framework of the creation and functioning of digital twins in various areas, in particular, transportation systems, nuclear power industry and blockchain. The insertion modeling of continuous processes is considered, as well as a multi-level modeling method in medicine and biology. The neuro-insertion approach, which is based on a combination of artificial intelligence methods and insertion modeling, is considered. Examples of the application of the neuro-insertion approach in cybersecurity, as a model for predicting attacks with confirmation by the algebraic component of the digital twin, are presented.
