Shield Cross Icon
shield-cross · Security · 6 styles
Solar Icons draws Shield Cross as part of its Security collection. It is one of 46 glyphs in that category and one of 1,246 icons in the library overall, each drawn on the same 24x24 grid so Shield Cross lines up optically with everything around it. The icon is addressed in templates by the string "shield-cross", and every style variant resolves from that single name.
What the outline actually encodes is protection and trust and dismissing or closing. That places Shield Cross in the Security family, which covers locks, keys, shields and access control and turns up in login screens, permission matrices, 2FA flows and privacy settings. Teams building products where trust has to be visible reach for this set first. Use Shield Cross where the label alone would be ambiguous — an icon-only button, a dense table row, a mobile tab bar — and keep an accessible name on the control, because the SVG itself is decorative.
Shield Cross in 6 styles
Shield Cross is exported in 6 style variants: Bold, Bold Duotone, Linear, Outline, Broken and Line Duotone. Bold gives you solid filled shapes that hold their weight at 16px and read clearly against coloured backgrounds. Bold Duotone gives you a filled body with a second, lower-opacity layer that adds depth without a second colour token. Linear gives you even 1.5px strokes, the neutral default for dense interfaces and toolbars. A common pairing is Bold for the selected state and Line Duotone for the rest, so the active item reads without a colour change.

Every export is an isolated constant, so the bundler drops whatever you never mention. Import ShieldCrossBold from the "@rchernando/solar-icons/security" entry point, hand it to provideSolarIcons in your application config or in a route-level providers array, and render it with the solar-icon component. All 6 exports for shield-cross live in that same entry point, so switching style is a one-line change.

Shield Cross icon FAQ
- How do I use the shield-cross icon in Angular?
- Import ShieldCrossBold from "@rchernando/solar-icons/security", register it with provideSolarIcons(ShieldCrossBold) and render <solar-icon name="shield-cross" iconStyle="bold" />. No HTTP request is made — the SVG is inlined at build time.
- Which styles does Shield Cross support?
- 6 of them: Bold, Bold Duotone, Linear, Outline, Broken and Line Duotone. Each is a separate export, so you only ship the ones you import.
- Can I change the size and colour of shield-cross?
- Yes. The size input accepts any CSS length and the SVG uses currentColor, so Shield Cross inherits the text colour of its container — a Tailwind class such as text-violet-400 is enough.
