A sporadic group is one of the 26 exceptional groups found in the classification of finite simple groups. All the other finite simple groups form 18 infinite families numbered by q - power of prime number and n - natural number. Sporadic groups attach attention due to their sporadic/exceptional nature - similar to exceptional Lie groups. The first sporadic groups were found by Mathieu in 1860s. The last sporadic group J4 was discovered in 1975 by Janko.

Schreier conjecture -- without a simple proof? and sporadic simple groups
Regarding your second question, for every finite simple group the structure of its outer automorphism group is known.
For the sporadic groups, there is the following 2011 preprint on arXiv:
