vCenter Inventory service unable to start.

So its, vCenter 6.0 installed on Windows Server. Just got it handover under project where I don't know how authentication was configured and if any recent changes were made. Now Inventory service won't start and when checking in logs, its throwing below error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Check your SSO identity source and see if it lists the same LDAPS string. Is that server a valid, responding LDAP server listening over secure LDAP?
