The Networks are Not WPA3:
This messages all pertains to encryption protocol being used for the network. WPA2 is no longer considered secure. So, you need to use a WiFi network that uses WPA3. If you were to have your own network, and have much older devices (ones that don't support WPA3), then you's need to enable WPA2/WPA3. So, have the owner of the network enable WPA2/WPA3.

Certain types of WPA 2 are still considered secure and it is somewhat rare to find one with WPA 3. If it is not letting you on the network it has detected not only that it is not using an acceptable level of security but is also a high risk connection for theft of data from your iPhone. Is this happening at all sites where you use WiFi? Have a Starbucks near you, try there.

Perform a Review:
You may want to consider contacting the corporate offices, if this connection is a must. Look at your most recent receipt, and you may find a link for performing a review of sorts about shopping experiences (leave associate names out, and just base your review on LAN inaccessibility).
