Hi.
1. Please check to enable TLS 1.2 and cipher by the IIS Crypto tool.
Technical reference details about encryption

2. Please check the same on your client's PC.
PS. I recommend reviewing or creating GPO for TLS 1.2 and cipher

- Dominic RussellDec 30, 2021Copper ContributorI already configured the proper ciphers with IISCrypto before it started doing this issue. I then tried many, many, many different settings in case one would work, but the error stays the same. I did not notice when this issue started because I am not using OWA/ECP often, but I can assure that when I installed the latest SSL certificate, it was working properly.

As mentioned, it was working few months back, so TLS 1.2 is already activated and working. The server is 2012R2. I installed .Net 4.8 just in case it would make any difference, but not. How to troubleshoot what is the error exactly and what triggers it? It would be preferable to pinpoint the source of the issue instead of trying settings and installation of programs...
Interesting fact I forgot to mention, the login screen appears correctly, it is after logging in that the web page shows this error.
