APT repositories are real URLs that you can open in a browser, the first 
part should work as is.

If you want to open the full path in a browser remember to add '/dists/' 
between the URL and the distribution (in this case 'bullseye-security') 
and an additional '/' for the component (in this case 'main'), like 
this:

    http://security.debian.org/debian-security/dists/bullseye-security/main


Kind regards,
Andrei
