It is not possible for us to respond to a statement that CAINE broke your drive's "security." We don't know what that means.

Bootable CAINE, by default, makes no changes to attached devices. Installed CAINE will, of course, install a Linux operating System and alter at least one partition on your storage device as well as modify the master boot record (if you take the Grub default, which is recommended). However, devices attached to the system with installed CAINE will still mount read-only by default.

Therefore, you have to specify read/write mounting to change data on a device. I suspect that unless you mounted read/write with CAINE, that CAINE did not cause any damage to your device. However, you'll need to tell us more about the problem before we can help you.
