Debian wheezy is currently security-supported by the Debian LTS team,
please see their documentation about using their updates. Essentially
if you have security.d.o wheezy/updates in your sources.list then you
are using wheezy (security).

BTW, please ask this sort of question via Debian support channels in future:
