from the apt-get manual page:
[...]
-y
--yes
--assume-yes
Automatic yes to prompts; assume "yes" as answer to all prompts
and run non-interactively. If an undesirable situation, such as
changing a held package or removing an essential package occurs
then apt-get will abort. Configuration Item: APT::Get::Assume-
Yes.
[...]
be sure to also "dpkg-reconfigure debconf" and set it to not ask trivial
questions.
cron-apt is a package to automate apt-get handling via cron. it could
assist you in setting up automatic security upgrades.
