im getting a SSLV3_ALERT_HANDSHAKE_FAILURESSL

Question

I am encountering some errors when using the requests library for making requests to a particular website. At times, it works fine, but other times it returns an error. Can anyone assist me in identifying the issue and providing a solution? I am aware of the verify=False option, but I cannot use it due to security concerns.

requests.exceptions.SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='*', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /token (Caused by SSLError(SSLError(1, '[SSL: SSLV3_ALERT_HANDSHAKE_FAILURE] sslv3 alert handshake failure (_ssl.c:997)')))

I have also tried to update the request library and OpenSSL
