See my post https://community.box.com/t5/Developer-Forum/Box-Java-SDK-Connection-Problem-SSLHandshakeException/m-p/27133/highlight/true#M1288 for the same error. It always leads me to research the valid certification and firewall, but it ends with no luck. For my case, it is the security software "Netscope Client" on my machine blocking the access and causing the above error.

It is most likely the same issue and you have to disable the security software. I would also suggest to run your same code on different computers and networks since it definitely can work. The same code is very likely running fine on your personal computer/network without these errors. Hope it is as easy as disabling a piece of security software or at least can help you narrow down the cause of the problem.
