The only things (that I know of) that can wake up a computer from Standby mode are the user, sending a "magic packet" to a NIC card that has its "wake on LAN" setting enabled, or a USB device that has the "Allow this device to bring the computer out of standby" setting enabled in the OS's Power Management setup.
