You don't need to install the rollups and the Security-only updates, just install one or the other. The rollups already include the Security updates anyway, plus some additional fixes (none of which I've found are of any use to me). You're just wasting space on your drive if you install both each month.

Just be aware, if you install only the Security-only updates instead of the rollups, then you'll also have to install the IE cumulative security updates offline each month too.
