Comment:
the unattended-upgrades package is configured by default on new installs.

  {{{cron-apt}}} will notify you once a day via email about any packages that can be upgraded. It does not install these upgrades, but does download them (usually in the night), so you don't have to wait for the download when you do {{{apt-get upgrade}}}.
  ## what does it do that you can't get more easily these days with "APT::Periodic::..." lines in an /etc/apt/apt.conf.d file?
  
- Automatic installation of updates can be done easily if desired, it just needs the {{{unattended-upgrades}}} package to be configured as described on [[https://wiki.debian.org/UnattendedUpgrades|wiki.debian.org/UnattendedUpgrades]].
+ Automatic installation of updates can be done easily if desired, it just needs the {{{unattended-upgrades}}} package to be configured as described on [[https://wiki.debian.org/UnattendedUpgrades|wiki.debian.org/UnattendedUpgrades]]. On new installations security updates are enabled by default.
  
  {{{apt-listchanges}}} can send new changelog entries to you via email, or alternativly display them in the terminal when running {{{aptitude}}} or {{{apt-get}}}.
