File upload audit/Determine if file is being uploaded. - winodino - Dec 6, 2019
Hello hackforums! I'm trying to write some software for enterprise software auditing. So basically I have an employee who sends a PDF as an attachment or uploads a zip file to google drive. My goal is to log this.
Methods I've tried.
FileSystemWatcher Class (System.IO) - This only checks if a file is changed on the disk, won't work.
.Net Microsoft Network Monitor(Packet sniffing) - Works if SSL isn't in play. Being this day in age, everyone uses HTTPS.
This would be ideal since I can log the hostname and file being uploaded.
Anyone have any ideas? 🤝

Google is actually very developer friendly, believe it or not.
Since you mentioned that you're using .NET for this, you can very well utilize their API's:

This can be done with other programming languages as well and examples are ready for studying purposes here:
