It is not surrender.

Normally, 'shield down' should be taken as it is, that the protective shield is down and therefore does not accord protection any more, unless of course the shield is configured in such a way that when 'down' it means protection.

A relevant phrase is "take up the gauntlet" which means to take up the challenge.
