## Steps

There are a few different ways to receive notifications of security releases:

* Highly critical security announcements will be displayed on the administration
pages of your website. A link will be shown to the announcement on Drupal.org
which explains when and how you can update your website.
* In the _Manage_ administrative menu, navigate to _Reports_ > _Available
updates_ > _Settings_. Enter the email addresses to be notified when updates are
available. You can also specify whether you want daily or weekly updates. Click
_Save configuration_.
* Subscribe to the security announcements email list. To subscribe, log in to
_Drupal.org_, go to your user profile page and subscribe to the security
newsletter on the _Edit_ > _My newsletters_ tab.
* Follow @drupalsecurity on X.
* Subscribe to RSS feeds for
[core security updates](https://www.drupal.org/security/rss.xml),
[contributed project updates](https://www.drupal.org/security/contrib/rss.xml) and
[public service announcements](https://www.drupal.org/security/psa/rss.xml).
