1. A sensor data assembly to securely store monitored data containing sensor data acquired by a sensor, comprising:
a sensor,
a processing unit adapted to provide a cryptographic checksum of the monitored data and/or the sensor data acquired by the sensor,
a distributed database adapted to store the monitored data and the cryptographic checksum, wherein the distributed database is protected against manipulation, and
a first connection adapted to at least temporarily connect the sensor and the processing unit;
wherein the sensor and the processing unit are inseparably connected and wherein the first connection comprises one of:
a direct connection including a cable connection from the sensor to the processing unit, and
a circuit board, wherein a first part of the circuit board is connected to the sensor and a different second part of the circuit board is connected to the processing unit.
