# AWS Transfer Family

## Deployment Options

Deploy AWS Transfer Family and antivirus scanning at the same time in 5-15 minutes via our AWS CloudFormation Template. If you are new to Transfer Family, everything you need to be up and running will be deployed for you. If you are already using Transfer Family, it is easy to select the S3 buckets linked with your Server to deploy antivirus scanning.

If you're just getting started with our solution you'll need to [subscribe to dedicated AWS Transfer Family listing](/getting-started/how-to-subscribe/aws-transfer-family.md) on AWS Marketplace. After you've subscribed you'll be able to [deploy the AWS Transfer Family CloudFormation Template](/getting-started/how-to-deploy/aws-transfer-family.md).

{% hint style="info" %}
If you are currently subscribed to the Antivirus for Amazon S3 product and have a Transfer Family Server deployed, all you need to do is [protect the S3 bucket](https://help.cloudstoragesec.com/console-overview/protected-buckets) linked to your Transfer Family Server to ensure its contents are clean.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.cloudstoragesec.com/how-it-works/integrations/aws-transfer-family.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
