Background of How To Update Raspberry
You should strongly consider to update your Raspberry on a regular basis. This not only to always have the latest software version installed, but much more to fix any potential software vulnerabilities. Software vulnerabilities can be exploited by cyber criminals and thereby criminals can potentially take control over your Raspberry Pi or even more devices in your network.
How To Update Raspberry
You actually will love to learn how simple it is to update your Raspberry. A single combined command does actually both for you, update and upgrade it. Before you do so, please ensure you have a proper and working backup of your Raspberry.
Update Your Raspberry by executing:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
You will see your Raspberry either telling you there is nothing to update, or it will share with you on the terminal window plenty of information about packages that are being updated. In case there is nothing to update, it could look like the below:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade -y Get:1 http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian bullseye InRelease [15.0 kB] Hit:2 http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian bullseye InRelease Fetched 15.0 kB in 1s (11.5 kB/s) Reading package lists...

Additional Information
You maybe like to consider to get your Raspberry updated automatically (also called headless). If that’s the case, then check out the Hardening of OpenHAB Guide that I wrote some time back. In it you can find a section called “Configure Unattended Updates”. This section will help you to get this done.
