Hello. You may wish to try having a look at the Alva BC640 with its feature pack. The feature pack appears to the phone as a standard keyboard. It is possible that this keyboard will allow you to wake the iPhone up. I am not sure whether this is the case, but it is more possible in theory than with

It would not be a security risk. For a keyboard or any device to wake up an iOS device, the two must be paired first. so, if you have not explicitly paired a display with an iOS device, that display could not wake it up, just as, right now, iOS devices do not take commands from random displays.
