## Working with security policies

* **Note**\
  We support TLS 1.2.
* **Note**\
  `TransferSecurityPolicy-2020-06` is the default security policy attached to your server when creating a server using the console. `TransferSecurityPolicy-2018-11` is the default security policy attached to your server when creating a server using the API or CLI.
* **Note**\
  The FIPS service endpoint and TransferSecurityPolicy-FIPS-2020-06 security policy is only available in some AWS Regions. For more information, see [AWS Transfer Family endpoints and quotas](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/transfer-service.html) in the *AWS General Reference*.

## Cross-service confused deputy prevention

* **Note**\
  In the following examples, replace each *user input placeholder* with your own information.
* **Note**\
  In our examples, we use both `ArnLike` and `ArnEquals`. They are functionally identical, and therefore you may use either when you construct your policies. Transfer Family documentation uses `ArnLike` when the condition contains a wildcard character, and `ArnEquals` to indicate an exact match condition.
* **Note**\
  The following examples can be used in both logging and invocation roles.
