+
+## Summary
+
+The Search Guard End of Life policy defines 
+
+* which Elasticsearch versions receive new Search Guard features and bugfixes
+* which Elasticsearch version receive critical bugfixes for Search Guard
+* which Elasticsearch version is End of Life (EOL) and will not receive any Search Guard updates
+
+**The Search Guard EOL policy follows the Elasticsearch update policy.**
+
+Please also refer to [Elasticsearch end of life policy](https://www.elastic.co/de/support/eol) to check whether your Elasticsearch version
+has reached End of Life in general. 
+
+## Which Elasticsearch versions receive new features and bugfixes
+
+* All releases of the current minor version of the current Elasticsearch major version
+
+**Example:** If the most recent version of Elasticsearch and Kibana is **{{site.elasticsearch.currentversion}}**, then
+the following versions receive new Search Guard features and bugfixes:
+
+* Elasticsearch and Kibana {{site.elasticsearch.minorversion}}.x
+
+## Which Elasticsearch versions receive critical bugfixes
+
+* All releases of the current minor version of the current Elasticsearch major version
+* All releases of the previous minor version of the current Elasticsearch major version
+* Current version of the last Elasticsearch major version
+
+**Example:** If the most recent version of Elasticsearch and Kibana is **{{site.elasticsearch.currentversion}}**, then
+the following versions receive critical bugfixes
+
+* Elasticsearch and Kibana {{site.elasticsearch.minorversion}}.x
+* Elasticsearch and Kibana {{site.elasticsearch.previousminorversion}}.x
+* Elasticsearch and Kibana {{site.elasticsearch.currentversionlastmajor}}
