Check the Microsoft documentation for the specific ODBC driver version you are using to determine its supported SSL/TLS protocols and cipher suites. Older driver versions might not support newer, more secure protocols. Update to the latest supported ODBC driver for SQL Server. The SQL Server documentation also lists compatible ODBC driver versions. A mismatch can cause security errors and connection failures. Also, ensure the driver's version is compatible with your operating system version.
