Shield Up Icon

shield-up · Security · 6 styles

Solar Icons catalogues Shield Up under Security. 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 Up lines up optically with everything around it. The icon is addressed in templates by the string "shield-up", and every style variant resolves from that single name.

Semantically the glyph carries protection and trust and upward direction. That places Shield Up 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 Up 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 Up in 6 styles

Shield Up comes rendered 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.

How to use the shield-up icon in Angular

You register only the variants you actually render, so nothing unused reaches the bundle. Import ShieldUpBold 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-up live in that same entry point, so switching style is a one-line change.

typescript
import { ShieldUpBold, ShieldUpBoldDuotone, ShieldUpLinear, ShieldUpOutline, ShieldUpBroken, ShieldUpLineDuotone } from '@rchernando/solar-icons/security';
typescript
import { ApplicationConfig } from '@angular/core';
import { provideSolarIcons } from '@rchernando/solar-icons';
import { ShieldUpBold } from '@rchernando/solar-icons/security';

export const appConfig: ApplicationConfig = {
  providers: [provideSolarIcons(ShieldUpBold)]
};

Shield Up icon FAQ

How do I use the shield-up icon in Angular?
Import ShieldUpBold from "@rchernando/solar-icons/security", register it with provideSolarIcons(ShieldUpBold) and render <solar-icon name="shield-up" iconStyle="bold" />. No HTTP request is made — the SVG is inlined at build time.
Which styles does Shield Up 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-up?
Yes. The size input accepts any CSS length and the SVG uses currentColor, so Shield Up inherits the text colour of its container — a Tailwind class such as text-violet-400 is enough.
