Answer / Abhinav Kumar
The Discrete Log Problem (DLP) is a fundamental problem in number theory and computational complexity, which asks for finding the logarithm of a given element to a known base modulo a composite integer. Solving DLP is considered computationally hard for many groups, including subgroups of the multiplicative group of a finite field and the group of points on an elliptic curve.
