About this icon
Use the Shield Exclamation icon
This outline icon from Heroicons 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 Shield Exclamation icon stays pixel-perfect at 16px, 24px, 48px, and any large marketing size.
Design & UX integration
Aesthetic characteristics
Heroicons is made by the Tailwind CSS team, and Shield Exclamation shows it: geometry tuned to sit on Tailwind's spacing scale and to stay legible at 16px, 20px and 24px. Every icon ships in both outline and solid, so you can change style without changing size or re-aligning anything.
UX best practices
Security icons carry more weight than most: users read a lock, shield or key as a trust signal, so the Shield Exclamation 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.

npm install @heroicons/react
