The exact change

Before

Table cell read "Not published (around 825/1000 historically)" for CCNA passing score; a quote attributed directly to Dr. Gregory Cizek's book; a quote attributed to 'ISACA CAT Implementation Documentation' about CISSP CAT mechanics (CISSP is administered by ISC2, not ISACA); reference list included an ISACA CISM/CISA CAT documentation entry.

After

CCNA passing score cell corrected to plain "Not published" (removing the unverified historical figure); both quotes de-attributed to unattributed prose; the mismatched ISACA reference-list entry removed, keeping the correct ISC2 CISSP reference.

Suggested change

Removed the fabricated CCNA score figure entirely, leaving both cells accurately as 'Not published'; de-attributed the Cizek quote to plain unattributed prose; de-attributed the CISSP CAT quote and removed the mismatched ISACA reference-list entry, keeping the correct ISC2 CISSP reference already present.

Why this is better

Removed an unverified numeric figure that contradicted its own 'not published' label, de-attributed two unsourced quotes, and removed a mismatched organizational citation (CISSP is ISC2, not ISACA).
