deb.debian.org will pick up the CDN which doesn't really care where you are
and will "just redirect" to get you your packages.
security.debian.org is the canonical name for the security mirror.
It doesn't really matter - the errata message points up the change in
format of the line to the new format from Bullseye release.
Hope this helps - there's been a thread in debian-user similarly.
With every good wish, as ever,
