About this icon

Use the Shield Sharp icon

Icons in the solid style — like Shield Sharp — are designed for interface components and product UI. Use it across login and authentication flows, permission management panels, privacy settings, VPN apps, and security dashboards for a consistent, professional look.

IconStash's editor lets you fine-tune color, size, and stroke width in real time, then export in the format that fits your workflow: SVG, PNG, JSX, or CSS background-mask.

Export formats

Copy clean SVG vectors with one click, generate custom-size PNG files from 16px to 512px, export JSX/React components ready to paste into your project, or use the icon as a CSS background-mask for flexible theming.

All exports are based on the same editable vector — so the Shield Sharp icon stays pixel-perfect at 16px, 24px, 48px, and any large marketing size.

Design & UX integration

Aesthetic characteristics

Ionicons ships Shield Sharp in Outline, Filled and Sharp variants. Sharp drops the rounded corners for a more angular look, which makes the set unusually flexible — the same icon can read as approachable or as technical depending on which variant you pick.

UX best practices

Security icons carry more weight than most: users read a lock, shield or key as a trust signal, so the Shield Sharp icon should never be decorative. Place it next to the mechanism it actually describes — the payment step, the HTTPS indicator, the permission toggle — rather than in a generic header where it implies protection that may not exist.

Use in your project

React / npm — Ionicons

npm install @ionic/react ionicons

import { IonIcon } from '@ionic/react';
import { shieldsharp } from 'ionicons/icons';

// JSX usage:
<IonIcon icon={shieldsharp} style={{ fontSize: '24px' }} />

Copy the SVG markup directly from the IconStash editor to use the Shield Sharp icon without any npm package — paste it into HTML, JSX, or a design tool.
