Update Workstations to SecureDrop 2.15.0

Important

We recommend backing up your workstations prior to any upgrades. See our backup instructions for more information.

Update Automatically

On the next boot of your SecureDrop Journalist and Admin Workstations, securedrop-admin will be automatically updated once your Persistent Storage volume is unlocked and a Tor connection is established.

Manual Update

You can manually update by running:

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

This will check for updates to your installed packages, including securedrop-admin, and install any that are available.

You can verify the installed version number by running:

sudo apt policy securedrop-admin

and confirming that you see version ‘2.15.0’ is installed.
