Default How secure is updating and installing online

How secure is it updating and installing the OS and packages online? How can I be sure the software is legitimate when I do an online install, cvsup, and pkg_add? Usually when you download software, you can use md5sum or gpg to check before installing. Enquiring minds wants to know.
