About this icon

Use the Bx Shield icon

This outline icon from Boxicons works well across login and authentication flows, permission management panels, privacy settings, VPN apps, and security dashboards. The outline visual style is specifically suited for app navigation bars, toolbar buttons, form labels, and UI controls where clarity at 16–24px is critical.

Customize it in IconStash: pick a color preset or enter any hex code, set exact dimensions, adjust stroke weight, then copy SVG code or download a PNG — no account needed.

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 Bx Shield icon stays pixel-perfect at 16px, 24px, 48px, and any large marketing size.

Design & UX integration

Aesthetic characteristics

Boxicons gives Bx Shield a slightly chunkier, more rounded treatment than most outline sets, and ships Regular, Solid and Logos variants. The Logos subset — brand marks redrawn to match the UI icons — makes it a practical single-dependency choice for marketing sites.

UX best practices

Security icons carry more weight than most: users read a lock, shield or key as a trust signal, so the Bx Shield 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 — Boxicons

npm install react-icons

import { BxBxShield } from 'react-icons/bx';

// JSX usage:
<BxBxShield size={24} />

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