Accessing the PCI DSS Fixlet sites
Before you can access the security configuration checklists that are related to PCI DSS, you must acquire the sites and accept the license agreement. After you acquire the site, you must gather the contents of the site to your console. You must also subscribe your computers to the site so that they can access the PCI DSS content.
