Public key encryption is based on composite numbers. In fact it is based on composite numbers which are the product of two very large prime numbers.

Yes, of course. In fact the product of any two numbers is composite unless one of them is 1.
Showing a composite number as a product of prime numbers is called prime factorization.

I believe it is. A composite number is a number that is the product of two other numbers multiplied, isn't it?

The product of two prime numbers is always a composite number, and it never is a prime number.
If you mean the product, that's by definition. A composite number has smaller factors. If you multiply two positive integers, none of which is 1, together, then it follows that the product has smaller factors - namely, the numbers you multiplied together.
Product of two prime numbers is a composite number. e.g. 2 x 3 = 6, 3 x 17 = 51 etc. But, why the result is a composite number? Definition of composite number makes it much clear: A number which can be expressed as the product of prime numbers is called a composite number. Also, it has more than two factors. So, product of two primes is a composite number.
A composite number is the product of two or more prime numbers.
