About the Broken Shield Jagged Crack black filled icon

A classic pointed shield is drawn with a double contour and split down the middle by a wide zigzag fracture that starts at the top edge and tapers to a point near the base, leaving the two halves pulled apart. It signals a security breach, expired protection, vulnerability or damaged defenses. Use it in antivirus dashboards, firewall alerts, insurance lapse notices, error states and cybersecurity training slides.

The crack mirrors a lightning bolt, which keeps the break legible even when the shield shrinks, and the inner outline gives the plate visible thickness. It is the counterpart to intact shield, shield check and padlock icons in the security family. Reserve it for warning states and place it beside red alert text at 24 px or above.

This is the solid black filled version of the broken shield jagged crack icon: a bold silhouette that reads clearly at 16-24 px and on dark or busy backgrounds, and prints well in one colour.
