FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What the Shield Warning icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
The shield-warning icon represents a shield with a warning symbol inside, indicating a potential risk or caution related to security. This icon combines the universal symbol of protection, the shield, with a warning sign, which typically suggests caution or danger. The shield has historical roots in heraldry and protection, while the warning symbol is widely used in safety and hazard communications.
In digital interfaces, the shield-warning icon appears in contexts where security risks or cautions need to be communicated. For example, it is used in security software like McAfee, which alerts users to potential threats, and in platforms like WordPress, which may display it to warn users about security vulnerabilities.
From a UX perspective, the shield-warning icon communicates caution and alerts users to potential security risks. It helps users understand that there might be a problem that requires their attention, thereby preventing potential harm or data breaches. This icon is crucial in security and risk management interfaces.
Shield Warning is one of 715 icons in coolicons, made by Kryston Schwarze and released under CC BY 4.0. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2 stroke.
Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds ShieldWarningIcon to components/icons/ci-shield-warning.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.
Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed ShieldWarningIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.
Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.
With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Shield Warning icon, or any of 715 coolicons icons, and install it from a prompt.
It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.
Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.
Shield Warning is a line icon drawn with a stroke width of 2. Change it in Customize before you copy, or pass strokeWidth to the installed component when all of its strokes share one width.
Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.
Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Shield Warning", so screen readers say what it does.
Yes. ShieldWarningIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <ShieldWarningIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.
Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.
Yes, with credit: CC BY 4.0 asks you to credit the author (Kryston Schwarze) where you use the icons. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.
Yes. CC BY 4.0 asks you to credit the author where you use the icons, for example "Icons by Kryston Schwarze, CC BY 4.0" on an about or credits page.
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
