    Reading through my weekly security news and stumbled on a Bleepingcomputer article about using Google Workspace's Drive and Sheets (formerly G-Suite) to communicate and exfiltrate information natively Drive and Sheets.
    I thought this was a clever project because:
    You do not have to set up any particular domains, servers as most C2 frameworks do. (And many defense tools maintain a dynamic list of  malicious domains, IPs, etc).
    This doesn't use common C2 and red team frameworks, such as Cobalt Strike, SilverC2, or Brute Ratel.
    This program and traffic only interact with Google's domains (*.google.com) to make detection more difficult for tools.

    Despite being a statistical experiment, A/B testing is quite close to being a form of art. Its apparent simplicity is deceiving, as many variables should be taken into account. Being a professional in A/B testing requires seeing a big picture, which includes all aspects of the product subject to testing; technical issues that might affect different versions’ perception; real-life context of the experiment and many other factors that may have an unexpected influence on the test results. Moreover, understanding human nature and taking a critical approach to interpreting data no matter how good it looks at first sight is a must.
