Thanks Mike. I captured a small pcap from the sensor, and analysed it with
wireshark, which classified the traffic
as encrypted QUIC payload.
Unfortunately when ran with the Bro 2.5.1 install on the system in offline
mode,
it didn't generate those weird alerts, maybe because the traffic captured
was for just couple of minutes.
Hence, Johanna and I concluded that Google might be experimenting with the
UDP port 443 and it's the cause of those alerts. :)

I haven't tried the QUIC analyzer though, will try that next!

Thanks,
Fatema.
