your SecureDrop server is prepared for the automated migration to Ubuntu 24.04
(Noble) in early 2025.

After updating to SecureDrop 2.11.0 using the steps below, it's important
that you review our :doc:`Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble) migration guide <../admin/maintenance/noble_migration_prep>`,
and run the ``securedrop-noble-migration-check`` script prior to January 31st, 2025
to ensure your server is ready for the migration.
SecureDrop 2.11.0 will automatically run checks to ensure all servers are ready for migration to Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble). If issues are found, a banner will be displayed in the Journalist Interface to both admins and journalists. Administrators are encouraged to review the
:doc:`Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble) migration guide <../admin/maintenance/noble_migration_prep>`
explaining how to resolve any errors and perform any necessary steps before
Jan. 31st, 2025.

We will have more details on the migration itself early next year.

.. note::

Admins and Journalists may notice a new banner after logging into the
*Journalist Interface*, which indicates that there are currently issues
that would prevent an automatic migration to Ubuntu 24.04. If you see this
banner, refer to the
:doc:`Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble) migration guide <../admin/maintenance/noble_migration_prep>`.
