C Correct answer
Explanation

AppScan flags predictable credentials using patterns: dictionary words, simple substitutions (1 for i, 0 for o, @ for a), or minimal variations. 'n@sc1234r' uses special characters and numbers unpredictably. Others: admin1 (common word+number), nAscar (simple substitution), nascar2 (minimal variation). The special characters and random number placement make C harder to predict.
