Updating Debian 8 Packages
I've seen lots of threads all with slightly different answers. Tried all I could but I think they're now all outdated.
So we're running Debian 8 (Can't upgrade as it's not our server) the result of cat /etc/os-release is
PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 8 (jessie)"
NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="8"
VERSION="8 (jessie)"
ID=debian
HOME_URL="http://www.debian.org/"
SUPPORT_URL="http://www.debian.org/support"
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.debian.org/"
Output from cat /etc/debian_version is:
8.3
The /etc/apt/sources.list is
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian/ jessie main non-free contrib
deb-src http://archive.debian.org/debian/ jessie main non-free contrib
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-security/ jessie/updates main non-free contrib
deb-src http://archive.debian.org/debian-security/ jessie/updates main non-free contrib
Inside /etc/apt/sources.list.d I have...
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 244 Feb 17 2016 backports.list
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 82 Feb 4 09:04 google-cloud-monitoring.list
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 82 Feb 4 09:08 jessie-backports.list
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 79 Feb 4 09:08 jessie.list
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 183 Jul 18 2016 mod-pagespeed.list
Inside these there are..... (combined list)

However we get the following error which suggests maybe the sources need changing again to working ones?

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
Solution 1:
You've shown us /etc/apt/sources.list but you have a lot of other apt repositories defined, so those are probably present in files under /etc/apt/sources.list.d.
Debian 8 is so old that all of these other repositories are unlikely to still support it. They should probably be removed.
Also the debian-security repository is not yet on archive.debian.org, which is why you get 404 Not Found. For that you should be using:
deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free
though it is out of support now so still won't see any updates, it just won't give any errors.
