The `SQLNCLI11.dll` (or equivalent) is a core component of the Microsoft ODBC SQL Server driver that handles SSL connections. Errors related to SSL security often point to problems within this DLL's configuration or functionality. Reinstalling the driver, or updating it to the latest version, can often resolve issues related to this DLL.
