0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

EquipmentShare is a large US-based construction equipment rental and technology company offering a wide range of rental equipment, sales of new and used machinery, and a proprietary fleet tracking platform called T3. The company operates a nationwide network of 348 locations, targeting construction firms and jobsite managers with integrated technology and service solutions. The website is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and rich in content, reflecting a mature digital presence. Technically, the site leverages modern web technologies including Webflow CMS, Google Tag Manager, Datadog RUM, and Google Maps API, ensuring good performance and user experience. Security posture is strong with HTTPS, security headers, and privacy-conscious analytics implementation, though the absence of a public security policy or incident response contact is noted. The lack of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification but the overall site professionalism and business consistency support legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy, incident response contacts, and enhancing accessibility compliance.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

EquipmentShare holds a strong market position as a national leader in construction equipment rental and technology solutions. Their business model combines physical asset rental and sales with digital fleet management services, creating diversified revenue streams. The target customers are construction companies requiring reliable equipment and jobsite technology. The company demonstrates growth through extensive branch coverage and technology innovation. Partnerships with trusted equipment brands and a focus on customer testimonials enhance credibility. The website content and structure support clear communication of services and corporate culture, aiding customer engagement and recruitment.

Security posture

The website employs robust security measures including HTTPS, Content Security Policy, and other security headers. Analytics scripts are loaded with privacy considerations such as masking user input and consent-based initialization. However, the absence of a public security policy, incident response information, or vulnerability disclosure reduces transparency and preparedness perception. No obvious vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved by adding explicit security governance documentation and contact channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a public vulnerability disclosure or security.txt page to encourage responsible reporting.
  2. Add incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email) on the website.
  3. Include a dedicated security policy page referencing standards or frameworks followed.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet or exceed compliance standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Webflow CMS with modern JavaScript modules and integrates third-party services such as Google Tag Manager and Datadog for analytics and monitoring. It uses Typekit for fonts and Google Maps API for location services. The site is well-optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness. Hosting is via Webflow's platform, providing reliable uptime and scalability. The technical implementation reflects a modern, maintainable infrastructure with good SEO and accessibility practices, though some improvements in accessibility could be made.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
