I was going through Keychain Access and noticed two copies of the following Certificate: Metrasoft RootCA Class 1

Like I said, there are two copies of this certificate. One is flagged as Not Trusted and carries the name Metrasoft RootCA Class 1. The other is flagged as Signed by an Untrusted Issuer and carries the name WebChat, though the Issuer Common name is still Metrasoft RootCA Class 1.

Anyone know where these may have come from and can I safely delete them? They seem pretty sketchy. A quick Google gave me nothing.

The only thing that comes to mind is perhaps something work-related you did or was configured for you on the machine, or that some other user did, where they may have clicked accept or continue for a self-signed root certificate related to this company's site or a software app.
