not so true
will still be needing to contact the security updates repository to keep

plain trivial
will need to use the command line

debmirror --all --getcontents --progress --verbose --method=http
--dist=buster,buster-updates,buster-backports
--section=main,contrib,non-free --arch=amd64,i386 --rsync-extra=none
--source --i18n --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg
--root=debian --diff=mirror --host=debian.mirror.iweb.ca /mnt/mirror/debian


replace /mnt/mirror/debian with the folder of destination
replace debian.mirror.iweb.ca with your local mirror
