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

PCC Structurals, operating the Composites Horizons (CHI) location, is a specialized aerospace composites engineering and manufacturing company with over 40 years of experience. The company focuses on delivering high-temperature composite materials and bonded structures primarily for OEM and Tier 1 aerospace manufacturers. Their market position is supported by certifications such as ISO9001, AS9100, and Nadcap approvals, indicating a strong commitment to quality and industry standards. The website content is professional and well-structured, targeting aerospace industry stakeholders and emphasizing long-term partnerships and engineering excellence. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including Bootstrap and jQuery, ensuring good mobile responsiveness and user experience. The presence of privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms reflects a reasonable level of digital maturity and compliance with privacy regulations. However, the absence of explicit security headers and incident response information suggests room for improvement in security transparency and posture. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and implements cookie consent, but lacks visible advanced security headers and incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a notable anomaly that slightly reduces trust, although the website’s professional content and linkage to the parent company Precision Castparts Corp. support its legitimacy. Overall, PCC Structurals’ website is a credible and professional digital presence for a large aerospace manufacturing entity, with good content quality and privacy compliance. Enhancements in security policy transparency and WHOIS data availability would further strengthen trust and security posture.

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. 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

  2. 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
    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

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.

Business context

Business profile

PCC Structurals operates in the aerospace manufacturing sector, focusing on composites and bonded structures for gas turbine engines, airframes, and satellite launch vehicles. Their business model is B2B, serving OEMs and Tier 1 manufacturers with engineering and manufacturing solutions. The company benefits from a strong parent company relationship with Precision Castparts Corp., enhancing its market credibility. The presence of multiple certifications and prime customer approvals indicates a competitive advantage in quality and compliance. The website’s content and structure suggest a mature organization with a focus on long-term partnerships and innovation. The company’s digital footprint includes social media engagement and a clear privacy and cookie policy, supporting regulatory compliance and customer trust. Growth indicators include a large manufacturing space and a broad range of aerospace market segments served.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and a cookie consent mechanism in place. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options indicates potential gaps in defense-in-depth. No incident response or security policy pages were found, which limits transparency and readiness communication. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain is a concern from a trust perspective, as it may indicate privacy protection or data retrieval issues. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a corporate informational site but could be improved with enhanced headers, documented policies, and incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish explicit security policy and incident response information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility compliance to improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Address the missing WHOIS data by ensuring domain registration information is complete and publicly available to increase trust.

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.
