Get your Debian 11 security plan in place
On August 31, 2026, the Debian LTS team stopped patching Bullseye for good. Every new CVE leaves your systems exposed, with no OS-level patch coverage.
Moving to Debian 12 or 13 is the right long-term path, but real migrations take time you don't have. TuxCare's Endless Lifecycle Support buys you that time, keeping Debian 11 patched while your team upgrades on its own schedule.
Keep Running. Skip the Risks.
Migrating off Debian 11 is rarely quick. Package changes, dependency conflicts, kernel differences, and app compatibility issues can turn a "simple upgrade" into a full-blown project.
Endless Lifecycle Support keeps your Bullseye systems secure, so you migrate properly, not in panic mode.

How Does It Work?
We onboard new projects and enable 24/7 automated CVE tracking – monitoring the NVD, vendor, and GitHub security advisories, and other sources.
Once CVEs are detected, we backport upstream fixes using algorithmic and AI-assisted automation, with expert validation to ensure accuracy.
Patches are compiled in a binary format, extensively tested (for integrity, functionality, and regression), signed, and deployed to ELS repositories.
Your package managers, build tools, or orchestrators check for updates, then automatically pull and install them.
