Guard, shield (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

protect

I believe this is a double definition.

'guard' is the first definition.
(I know that guard is a more specific form of protect)

'shield' is the second definition.
(I know that shield is a more specific form of protect)

(Other definitions for protect that I've seen before include "Safeguard" , "Keep safe" , "Shield from danger" , "Guard" , "Take care of" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
