 | sources.list look like this:
 |
 | deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
 | deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib non-free
 |
 |     What are the official sources if you want to have an up to date,
 | secure system?

Mhh, just 2 clicks, and:
http://www.debian.org/security/ :

You may find it convenient to use apt to get the latest security updates.
This requires a line such as
   deb http://security.debian.org/ potato/updates main contrib non-free
in your /etc/apt/sources.list file.

You can also put
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-non-US potato/non-US main contrib
non-free

I have this line too, but I think it's the same as one before:
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security potato/updates main contrib
non-free
