Shield Minus Icon
shield-minus · Security · 6 styles
Solar Icons draws Shield Minus 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 Minus lines up optically with everything around it. The icon is addressed in templates by the string "shield-minus", and every style variant resolves from that single name.
What the outline actually encodes is protection and trust and removing or decrementing. That places Shield Minus 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 Minus 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 Minus in 6 styles
Shield Minus 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.

All 6 exports for shield-minus live in that same entry point, so switching style is a one-line change.
