These certificates are there to secure the communication between the VM and its host, during the transfer of protected settings (password, etc…) used by extensions. They are built by the Azure Fabric Controller, and passed to the VM Agent. If you stop/start the VM every day, a new certificate might be created by the Fabric Controller and will be stored in the Computer's Personal certificates store. These certificates can be deleted, the VM Agent will recreate one if needed.
