Greetings all! :D

I'm a big n00b when it comes to this stuff, so hopefully you guys and gals can edumacate me! :cool:

I was recently fiddling around in my Google Chrome preferences folder and I stumbled upon the Keychain Access in Mac OS. I have a rather elementary understanding of the login and system certificates and their purpose, but could someone please tell me how "System Roots" certificates work?

I browsed through the System Roots certificates on my Mac; and although they are all labeled valid, I am not sure if they are. :confused: For example, one of the certificates is named "EBG Elektronik Sertifika Hizmet Sağlayıcısı". :eek: Is this harmful in any way?

I also screen-capped a portion of the list. If someone could please run their eyes over it and let me know if anything seems out of place, that would be greatly appreciated! :D
