To distinguish between an INSERT and an UPDATE you can check if the model's id has been defined:-

public function beforeSave($options = array()) {
    if (! empty($this->id)) {
        // UPDATE
    } else {
        // INSERT
    }

    return parent::beforeSave($options);
}

If content is being deleted then beforeDelete() is called instead of beforeSave(). 

public function beforeDelete($cascade = true) {
    // DELETE

    return parent::beforeDelete($cascade);
}
