As kionae mentioned, every record in cake is refererred with respect to the column 'id' and that is why the user manual also presses you to have the id as the primary key for all your tables.
So if you are updating the record, make sure you have either 1. read the record in the model before you issue save or 2. have the id in the data that you are saving. Also, if you are updating one field, make sure you pass only that field in the save argument, this will save you time, trouble and close many security loopholes.
