It's correct.
The "Un" of "Unmonitoring" is moved to the associated verb in German:
"aufheben". which in this context translates to "cancel" or "revoke". This
seems to be one of the few cases where there's no commonly used single word in
German for "Unmonitoring".

That's how Tech-German often works - take a word from English and use it as-is,
sometimes missing the original meaning. Such words or phrases are then referred
to as: Denglisch.
In this case "Überwachung" was German, "Monitoring" is Denglisch. I'd revert
that to `\u00DCberwachung` - but both are okay.
