Digital twin technology. Concept and features of the approach to organizational and legal ensuring integrated security

The increasing complexity of technological processes and the development of information technologies are directly related to the formation of new concepts in building connections between the machine and human society. In modern conditions, the first place is taken by the concept of a computing network of physical objects (the Internet of things) equipped with built-in technologies for interacting with each other or with the external environment. Filling the concept of the Internet of Things with diverse technological content and the introduction of practical solutions for its implementation, starting from the 2010s, are considered to be an urgent direction in information technology. Some states are developing state information systems and networks based on the above technologies to accumulate data on any human activity and then analyze this data in order to make legally significant decisions. Connecting networks is capable of rebuilding economic and social processes, eliminating the need for human participation. A logical result of the development of IoT technologies is the use of digital twins (doubles), aimed at early warning and elimination of possible problems throughout the entire life cycle of a physical object. The use of digital twin technologies makes it possible to reduce production times, optimize production processes, reduce the number of failures and avoid interruptions in the operation of enterprises. With the imitation of the processes of objects of the physical world with the help of a digital twin, it becomes possible to control and eliminate negative consequences even before they occur. At the same time, the first place comes to the need to ensure information security of the digital profile of citizens, organizations and technological processes. The work reveals a number of problems of legal support of information security in the context of the transition to the active use of the technology of digital twins (doubles).
