MacQueen is a regional leader in providing environmental and emergency equipment solutions across multiple Midwestern states in the United States. Their business model focuses on B2B sales and service of specialized equipment for municipalities, emergency responders, and environmental service providers. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence with clear navigation and detailed product offerings. Technically, the site is built on the HubSpot CMS platform, leveraging modern marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Hotjar, indicating a mature digital marketing infrastructure. Security posture is generally strong with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities, though the absence of security headers and explicit privacy policies suggests room for improvement.

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

6 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, YouTube, Cloudflare

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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

MacQueen operates in the transportation and emergency equipment sector, serving a defined regional market in the Midwest US. Their partnerships with well-known vendors and manufacturers enhance their market position and product offerings. The company targets municipal and emergency service customers, providing both equipment sales and vehicle upfitting services. The website's integration with HubSpot and use of multiple analytics and marketing tools suggest a focus on lead generation and customer engagement. The absence of explicit privacy and cookie policies may reflect a gap in compliance or website maturity. The broad vendor ecosystem and professional presentation indicate a stable and established business with growth potential.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a good SSL configuration, uses sandboxed iframes for video content, and avoids exposing sensitive data in the HTML. However, no explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. There is no visible security incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, nor contact channels for security issues. The use of third-party marketing and analytics scripts introduces potential risk vectors that should be regularly audited. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be improved by implementing additional headers, publishing security policies, and providing clear incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  3. Add a security.txt file and vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Provide clear contact information for security incidents and abuse reporting to enhance trust and incident response readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the HubSpot CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries such as Splide.js for carousels and basicLightbox for image modals. It integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Hotjar, indicating a sophisticated marketing stack. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD VideoObject). Performance is moderate, with some external dependencies on CDN-hosted libraries. Accessibility features are basic but present. The lack of visible security headers and privacy policies suggests technical debt in compliance and security best practices. Hosting is managed by HubSpot, providing reliable infrastructure but limiting direct server-level security controls.
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.
