# Creating a risk policy for registration and authentication

## If you have a PingOne Protect license

If you have a PingOne Protect license, you can create a risk policy using the full range of PingOne predictors - including behavioral predictors that learn typical behavior for your organization. Learn more in [Adding a risk policy](../threat_protection_using_pingone_protect/p1_protect_adding_risk_policy.html).

## Creating a PingOne risk policy with an MFA-only license

An MFA-only license allows you to create a risk policy using a limited subset of PingOne Protect predictors.

Learn more about creating a risk policy with an MFA-only license in [Risk policies for MFA-only licenses](../threat_protection_using_pingone_protect/p1_protect_risk_policies_mfa_only.html).

Workforce environments that include the PingID service can use legacy PingID polices, which are configured and managed in the PingID admin portal. You can find details in [PingID authentication policy](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingid/pingid_service_management/pid_authentication_policy.html) in the PingID Administration Guide.
