The updates, in this case, are year specific, not model specific.
There is a file for all 2014's and a separate file for all 2015's.

2014: 13LHENNA-AB01_0007.kwi
2015: 13LHENNA-AB01_0006.kwi

I've placed both files at the Dropbox link:

Thank you so much Sasnuke! I just installed this on my 2015 IS350 F-Sport with navigation and had no issues. Would you happen to know what issues the latest updates fix? Quite annoying that Lexus stopped providing updates on their own site.

Depending on what previous version of the software you had, the update is supposed to address the issues listed below each version:

Some 2015 – 2017 Lexus vehicles equipped with navigation (version less than V1##8940) may exhibit one or more of the following conditions:
 Software update date does not display
 “Calculating” message displays on the map screen without displaying street name and remaining distance
 Unable to guide a route on the Home screen
 Black display screen
 Bluetooth® disconnects intermittently

Some 2015 – 2016 Lexus vehicles equipped with navigation (version less than V1##8910) may exhibit one or more of the following conditions:
 Voice Recognition is Inoperative
 Same XM channel icon is used for different channels
 iPod scroll stopped changing by tune ****
 HOME button does not work
 Reset while making a turn off of the highlighted route
 After correction of text in Quick Message15, the corrected text is displayed in Quick Message13
 Navigation system reboots intermittently
 Some screens with clock information show 12:00 as 0:00.

Some 2015 Lexus vehicles equipped with Navigation (version less than V1##8871) may exhibit one or more of the following conditions:
 Navigation system becomes frozen/has no response or slow response
 Resetting of the navigation system
 iPod Error is displayed with Apple device connected to the USB port
 Song Title is not updated when using Siri
 Display is blank after a Bluetooth™ Audio device is connected
 No audio sound after completing a phone call
 Navigation system resets when playing an "Audio Book" on a CD A software update is now available to address these conditions.

I went through the General menu icon to the Software Update to initiate it.
If it finds the file, it will show you the old and new file on screen before it asks you to start the update.
An 8GB USB drive worked. Thanks.
It said that the update is only for navigation and not the os, is that correct or could it be that I have the most up to date os already?

The OS update would be different. Think of this current update like a firmware update, so it doesn't impact the OS, rather component functionality.
I don't think there has been an OS update for 3IS...I could also be wrong...I didn't have my car from new.
