Thanks for the question. The following article may address your issue:
Apple ID: 'This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons' alert appears
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2446
To protect your security, your Apple ID will be automatically disabled if your account password is incorrectly entered too many times.

Resolution
Reset your account password
If your account was disabled for security reasons, use iForgot (iforgot.apple.com) to reset your account and restore access to the disabled services. You can also click the Reset Password or Forgot Password button in the alert message.
If you are an iCloud user, be sure to type your full email address when you're asked to enter your Apple ID. For example, username@me.com, username@mac.com, orusername@icloud.com.
Thanks,
Matt M.
