Explanation:

The sentence is describing about a shift in the technology in the telecom industry. It has also mentioned about the challenges faced by the industry few years ago. Therefore, to adhere to the context of the sentence “paranoid” should be replaced by “paradigm” while “triumph” should be replaced by “havoc”. Hence, option (a) is the most suitable answer choice.
Paranoid means unreasonably or obsessively anxious, suspicious, or mistrustful.
Triumph means a great victory or achievement.
Paradigm means a typical example or pattern of something; a pattern or model.
Havoc means widespread destruction.
