I have been digging into Google Drive while I am trying to investigate a proper way to protect files on a site. In my experience if a user has the URL to a file they can access it without any protection, like Facebook images for example.
However, Google Drive has a different method. For example an image has the path
src='blob:https://drive.google.com/cbdb6dfeSOMEBINGHASH----a3c121353655
.
So how is Google Drive protecting these files? And if I could guess the URL to a file, would I be able to access it?
