("Through The Looking Glass") What's the New Station's Command Access Code?

Referencing this scene during episode "Through The Looking Glass":

KIRA: Keep her alive. Kill the others.
SISKO: Oh, I wouldn't. You'd be making a mistake.
KIRA: The only mistake I made was not executing you in the first place.
SISKO: You don't know how right you are. I have activated the station's self-destruct sequence. Unless I disarm it, this whole place will blow up in nine minutes.
(Garak laughs.)
KIRA: That's impossible. There's no way you could know the station's command access code.
SISKO: Alpha nine one seven five blue.
KIRA: Computer, disengage self-destruct sequence. Authorisation Kira alpha nine one seven five blue.
COMPUTER: Authorisation denied.
SISKO: I changed it. You have eight minutes and thirty seconds to let us go. Otherwise we all die.
GARAK: Don't listen to him. He's bluffing.
KIRA: He's not bluffing.
GARAK: How do you know?
KIRA: I know. Give me the new access code and I'll let you go.
SISKO: I will give you the access code once my friends and I are safely away from the station. Do we have a deal?
KIRA: This isn't over Benjamin. I'll hunt you down. I swear it.
SISKO: You're welcome to try.

Any guesses on what the new station command access code could be?

Old Code: Alpha nine one seven five blue
New Code: ?

I'm going to guess "Alpha nine one seven five red"
 
During episode "The Adversary" later in that season Sisko uses these 2 authorization codes for the Defiant's self destruct sequence:

SISKO: Computer, this is Captain Benjamin Sisko. Initiate auto-destruct sequence. Authorisation Sisko alpha one alpha.
SISKO: Hard aport, Major. Take us away from the settlement. Computer, end auto-destruct sequence. Authorisation Sisko omega one seven abort.

If he doesn't like memorizing more codes than he has to, he may have picked one of those
