The current LTS version is Debian 11 ("bullseye") and will be supported until August 31st, 2026.
To receive security updates for Debian 11, your /etc/apt/sources.list should look like this one:
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye main contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye main contrib non-free
deb https://deb.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main contrib
deb-src https://deb.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main contrib
Note that if you already follow security.debian.org (and you should), this should mostly be a no-op. In other words, Debian LTS reuses the same mirror infrastructure as the regular release team, it's just a responsibility handover.

@zeroase@fosstodon.org When Debian 12 enters LTS, which is due in under 2 months, a similar modification should either be made, or in place. https://endoflife.date/debian Check your mirror list, and just continue to apt upgrade as before.
