Have the monthly security update iso's been discontinued?

The "Security Monthly Quality Rollups" for Win7 & Win8.1 are cumulative - as are the "Security and Quality Rollups" for various & sundry flavors of .NET Framework.

 

Have the monthly security update iso's been discontinued?

I'm afraid that's not what you said.

Cite:

• Monthly rollups for Win8.1 and Win7 beginning October 2016
  
  Monthly rollups for Win8.1 and Win7 beginning October 2016

Long story, short version:

• Most updates for Win10 are cumulative so you don't need an ISO, just make sure the most recent Cumulative Update for Win10 (e.g., KB3200970) is installed.
  
• The monthly security and quality rollups (AKA Security Monthly Quality Rollups) for Win8.1 & Win7 which began in October 2016 are also cumulative so you don't need an ISO - just make sure the most recent Security Monthly Quality Rollup (e.g., KB3197874;
  KB3197868) is installed.
  
• Ditto for the Security and Quality Rollups for various flavors of .NET Framework.
  
• Extended Support (and updates) for Vista SP2 ends on 11 April 2017 so (apparently) MS isn't bothering with Rollups for Vista (even though Vista-specific .NET Framework rollups will be offered).

Welcome to the brave new world of Windows as a Service!
